Q. Do you heat treat your sapphires?
Yes, occasionally we do use standard heat treatment for sapphires, if it is necessary. Get in contact if you would like to know extra information. Keep in mind heat treating is accepted in the industry and it doesn't change the chemical elements in a sapphire.
Q. What are Zircons?
Zircons are a natural gemstone that we find with sapphires. They have a hardness of 7.5mm and produce beautiful colours such as white, red, beige, orange and brown.
Q. I can't see a sapphire I like, could you facet one for me?
Absolutely, we can try our best to facet a sapphire for you. However, it is very hard to predict the outcome, sapphires especially partis can be unpredictable when faceting.
