Buying a gem goes far beyond simply choosing a colour. Depending on the type of jewel and the setting, several elements come into play.
For instance will your gem hold up well enough to be set in a ring, or would it be better suited to a pendant? These questions, as well as light sensitivity and the impact of inclusions on durability, will be explored in depth.
By the end of this part of the course, we will equip you with the knowledge and skills necessary to understand the intricate language of gemmology. You will be equipped with the knowledge to distinguish between different gemstone varieties, understand their value factors, and make educated decisions in various practical scenarios.
