Color
Jewelers describe the color of a gemstone relating to three characteristics: hue, saturation, and tone. A gemstone’s basic color is its hue, and those with purer hues (for emeralds, green; for sapphires, blue; and for rubies, red) are normally regarded as more valuable. Incessantly, on the other hand, a hint of some other color can also be detected. Saturation is a measure of the intensity or purity of a gem’s hue and is made up our minds by the degree to which gray or brown hues mute its defining color. Value has a tendency to increase with saturation, so a completely saturated purplish blue sapphire could be more expensive than a muted pure blue one. The tone of a gemstone, a measurement of its lightness or darkness, is frequently given as light, medium-light, medium, medium-dark, or dark.
Clarity
A flawless gemstone is rare and expensive. As with diamonds, most gemstones have inclusions, or tiny mineral flaws, that may be seen under magnification or by the careful eye. Be sure that any inclusions in the stone do not penetrate deeply into the gem, as this may cause it to break or crack. Clarity grades range from VVS (very, very moderately included) to I3, in which inclusions are prominent and severely have an effect on the gemstone’s beauty.
Cut
A gemstone’s cut refers to its proportions and symmetry. In making a gemstone look appealing–the stone must be symmetrical in all dimensions in order that it is going to appear balanced, and that its facets will reflect light lightly. Color must also be taken into account when cutting for optical efficiency. If a stone’s color is highly saturated, a shallow cut will allow it to pass more light, at the same time as a deeper cut may increase the vividness of a less saturated gem. There is not any normally accepted grading system for gemstone cut.
Size
Though a gemstone’s weight is frequently given in carats, this won’t give an accurate idea of its size, because various kinds of stone have different densities. Subsequently, a 1-carat sapphire or ruby will be smaller than a 1-carat emerald, though they have got the same weight, because sapphires and rubies (both a form of the mineral corundum) are more dense than emeralds.
Gemstones will also be measured in dimensions (diameter, length, and width). You will need to know the dimensions to be sure that the gemstone weight will be visible and well-proportioned in the setting.
Gemstone Treatment
Gemstones are Incessantly treated to toughen color and fill cracks. Please note: if a gemstone has been treated, this information will be provided in the specifications at the stone’s product detail page.
There are more than a few accepted techniques, depending on the kind of stone:
Oils and resins are incessantly used to fill surface-reaching fissures in emeralds and rubies. This process isn’t permanent, on the other hand; if a treated ruby or emerald is subjected to high heat, the filler may leak out of the stone.
Sapphires and rubies are Incessantly heated in a kiln or furnace to toughen their color. Such heat remedy, which is regarded as permanent, has been used for centuries.
Lightly colored sapphires might also undergo diffusion remedy. This is done by heating a stone in the presence of coloring elements such as titanium or iron, which causes a thin layer of color to be diffused into the stone’s surface. Because this color layer is so thin, a diffusion-treated sapphire must not be re-polished.
Gemstone Care
To clean gemstone jewelry, first wipe it with a soft cloth to take away any dirt. Emeralds require only the usage of a soft cloth, as cleaners may damage these soft gems. Sapphires and rubies can also be cleaned with either an ultrasonic cleaner or a solution of one part ammonia to six parts water, with a soft brush. Store your gemstone jewelry in a soft cloth pouch or jewelry case so it does not touch other pieces in your collection. As with any jewelry, normal wear and tear can loosen prongs and settings, so this can be a good idea to have it checked by a professional jeweler who can make repairs as needed.
