I took my rough cut gemstones here knowing that their actual worth and wanting to know what a professional would say, for him to then tell me to simply put them on Facebook marketplace because they were worthless. After not performing the correct procedures to check them. He simply looked over the surfaces and told me they were worthless.

I suggest possibly going somewhere else if you're planning on...

We agreed on a beautiful design and the turn around time was fast! He answered every question I had and went above and beyond with service. I’m thrilled with the final product and would recommend Eastern Lapidary...
