In case you didn’t hear, we’ve got a newsletter!
Our digital newsletter, Gems Uncut, works to provide you with another platform to receive all your latest gemstone information – as well as some special launches and promotions we’ve got on our website!
Gems Uncut gets sent directly to your email; but, in case you missed it, here’s a look at what May’s newsletter has in store for you – as well as a few sneak peeks of what didn’t quite make it inside!
OUR BUYING PROCESS: HOW WE BRING YOU THE BEST GEMSTONE DEALS
Ever wondered how we always manage to get you the best deals on our high-quality gemstone jewellery?
Due to our industry contacts, our prices rival those on the high street – and it’s all to do with our unique buying process.
Once we’ve chosen the exact gemstones we want, we price them based on a number of factors including quality, carat weight, saturation and tone. This makes sure that every single gemstone we buy is priced accurately and fairly – but this isn’t the only step in the process!
For a full breakdown of how we buy, grade and design our gemstone jewellery, read our blog on gemstone sourcing:

EMERALD
Their vibrant green hue makes them widely recognised, and they’re one of the most precious stones on the planet. So, it’s no secret as to why Emeralds are a worldwide favourite!
May babies are extremely lucky to have Emerald as their birthstone – they're striking, strong and effortlessly stylish. We have a huge variety of Emeralds available on our website, whether they be from South America, Africa or South East Asia.
Very few gemstones compare to Emerald – so it’d be a shame to not have one in your collection!
“An Emerald shines even if its worth is not spoken of.” - Marcus Aurelius
