How can I be confident in your products, pricing and service?

We completely understand that purchasing gemstones and fine gemstone jewelry is a daunting process at the best of times; particularly over the internet. To help you know about with whom it is that you are working, we have compiled information on us from 3rd party sources on our website blog. There is a limit to the amount of information that we can share here on Etsy FAQ, so please copy and paste the following URL to your address bar: http://pristinegemstonejewelry.com/frequently-asked-questions/ Question number 1 in the FAQ should provide all of the information that you are looking for.

Why aren't your gemstones already certified?

Because we are gemstone wholesalers, we carry 1000s of gemstones, and it isn’t feasible to have all of our stones certified, nor would it be standard practice for any supplier. The reason for this is that appraisals/certificates should be prepared by an objective 3rd party. Using an in-house gemologist is a conflict of interest. Therefore, when it is time to have a stone certified/appraised we send it out to a 3rd party. Rogerio has been wholesaling and cutting gemstones for over 24 years. He is very skilled at identifying stones. We offer complimentary appraisals on all of our items priced over $1800USD. For items below $1800USD, if a customer requests an appraisal or certificate, there will be an additional fee of $60USD

Do you offer layaway plans or financing?

We do offer layaway plans for some items; however, we encourage our customers to use Paypal Credit rather than set up a layaway plan with us. Using PayPal credit, you get your piece right away and can use it for any item listed in our shop (we would not even know you used Paypal credit). To use Paypal credit you just need to have a Paypal account and select "paypal credit" at check out. It is very simple. Fore more info, visit https://www.paypalcredit.com/index.html We do not offer financing.

Are your sapphires heat treated or treated at all?

Since most sapphires are heat treated we assume our sapphires as heat treated unless otherwise certified as not heat treated.

Custom and personalized orders

We do offer custom orders. Please copy and paste the following URL to your address bar to read details about the custom order process with us. http://pristinegemstonejewelry.com/pristine-gemstone-jewelry-custom-orders-the-process/

Why are your shops in USD if you are in Canada?

Although we are indeed operating from just outside of Liverpool, NS Canada, because we are an online business and sell to the globe, our website and Etsy shops are in USD. If you have any further questions or need more clarification, please email us at info@pristinegemstonejewelry.com

Rogerio is very communicative and helpful. I have very little knowledge about the jewel industry, and he was quite patient. He helped me find a great sapphire for an engagement ring. I would definitely recommend this shop! I only gave 4 stars to shipping because of the length of time it takes to receive, and having to pay to send something back- but that is to be expected across international lines!
