Peruvian Gemstones

Peru is known for its fine opal, particularly blue and pink opal gemstones. These beautiful pastel-colored opal gemstones do not generally exhibit the play of color that is highly-prized in precious opal, but have very attractive body colors. Chrysocolla gemstones, which are sometimes traded as "Peruvian turquoise" because of their resemblance to the blue to green gemstone, are also mined in Peru. Like turquoise and azurite, chrysocolla is a copper-bearing gemstone that is typically cut en cabochon. Due to its mix of blue and green, and unique patterns, no two chrysocolla gems are the same.

This business makes it easy to research and find all pertinent information about the individual gemstones and other information such as the recommend use (ring or pendent for example). Also it's important to know about things like hardness and durability of the gemstones. I also appreciate the history of purchases and transaction details.

After working with and polishing low-grade, rough fire-agate, only to be disappointed, this shop was nirvana. The costs of some gems might seem high, but I have easily spent the same amount rough polishing lousy material only to get a few hints of fire. If you want Fire-agates, BUY the agates you want. These are excellent specimens and are worth considering.

Everything was good but since I am still new I was surprised at how small the stones where.

It was fairly easy to navigate after learning the website. Found what I wanted and it’s suppose to be 100% natural gemstones. I will test when they arrive and update my feedback

This is probably the fourth time I havebought gems at Gem Select, I have never been disappointed. I design a ring for myself, it is easier to buy the gems I want and take them to a jeweler. I am sure I will order gems again.
