Uniquely amongst gemstone suppliers, GemSelect is able to offer our customers the ability to buy wholesale gemstones by piece. That means you can choose one, two or more items from our wide selection of gemstone lots - with no additional charges or premiums. In fact, you get the same value as you would if you were buying full lots!
Loose gemstones are sold in singles, pairs and lots. The first two are simple enough terms but the third is less well known.
- Single - An individual gemstone item available in many gemstone types, colors shapes and sizes.
- Pair - Two gemstones of the same type usually matching in size, shape and color.
- Lots - a package of three or more calibrated gemstones of an identical size, shape and color for use in any multi-stone jewelry designs.
These gemstone lots are usually sold in quantities that range from 3 or 4 gemstones all the way to hundreds of matching stones and tend to be for the wholesale jewelry market.
Our loose gemstones by piece are all-natural and hand selected for the finest quality.

Can we use gemstones by piece for the Chakras?
Chakras are energy centers located in different parts of the body which can affect us both emotionally and physically. Each Chakra has an individual color and a gemstone of that color can help realign or unblock a troubled Chakra.
The Chakra colors are purple, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. Finding all seven colors in small gemstones by piece is simple and inexpensive at GemSelect and these can be used to create a crystal healing tray, grid or altar. With a bit more skill an inclusive Chakra item of jewelry could also be made up or designed.
