The Natural Gemstone Company is AMAZING! If you want to design a custom ring or want unique gemstones and/or settings, this is the place to go. Their staff are gemstone experts and truly want you to love your purchase. Katherine is a wonderful gemologist who patiently worked with me over several months to bring to life the design for a family ring that I could see in my head but not find already made. We started with a picture of a ring that was somewhat like what I wanted. Since the company has their own CAD designers, they were able to adapt the original design with the elements I wanted, and then create 3D renderings of the final product from 4 different viewpoints. Being able to see a true-to-scale picture greatly reduced my concerns about making a significant purchase without physically seeing the actual product! When I finally received my ring, I was ecstatic - the workmanship and quality of the metals and stones were superb, and the ring exceeded my original design expectations! I encourage everyone who appreciates beautiful gemstones and jewelry to visit The Natural Gemstone Company’s website. This is a company I trust and will certainly purchase from again...
Read moreThis Tanzanite purchase is my fourth loose stone purchase from the Natural Gemstone, Sapphire, Ruby and Emerald family of companies. It is as breathtakingly beautiful as the other three stones and its beauty lies not only in its cut, shape, weight and other aspects of its look. But in its rarity, too. The Natural Gemstone Company also maintains an easy to navigate website with an extensive educational library, a precision browsing filter, close-up photos and videos of the gems and an all-inclusive gem data page. The site lists more than ten thousand gems from a large variety of different types of high-quality gems that are competitively priced against similar gems available from other online sellers. The customer service across all four sites is exceptional and Marie championed all four of my loose stone purchases and an earring that was custom made for me. I highly recommend the Natural Gemstone, Sapphire, Ruby and Emerald family of companies for precious and semi-precious gemstones. I look forward to my next shopping excursion...
Read moreMy journey with the Natural Gemstone Company was a pleasure from start to finish. I described to Lauren over email, then phone, what I was looking for to create a single custom stud earring. Several days later she had a presentation of a wonderful assortment of stones for me to look at, with a helpful printout of detailed descriptions and pricing. She was infinitely patient and helpful in describing each stone, in helping me make my choice, and worked with me to design a setting. I am thrilled with the final product - a mandarin garnet in a rose gold basket setting - and will be returning to design more pieces with her help. My finished piece came in a beautiful presentation box with a folder containing full documentation. The showroom, in a Rockefeller Center penthouse, is elegantly designed and has a jaw-dropping view. If you're looking to design colored stone jewelry from start to finish, this is the...
