Frequently Asked Questions
Can I work with you remotely?
Yes. Many clients work with me remotely. I can advise on sourcing decisions, assess stones, and provide local market insight without you needing to be present. For a full overview, download ⬇️ the Gemstone Concierge Pack pdf.
Can you accompany me in person while I source gemstones?
Absolutely. If you're travelling , I can act as your on-the-ground guide, helping you navigate markets, meet vetted suppliers, and make purchases safely and ethically. I could organise an exclusive visit to the mines in Ratnapura. You choose whether you want me with you in person or working on your behalf.
Do you sell gemstones directly?
No. I am independent and do not sell gemstones. This ensures my advice remains objective and focused solely on your interests.
Is certification enough when buying gemstones?
Certification is useful but does not replace expert interpretation. Cutting quality, durability, treatments, and overall value require professional assessment.
How do you approach ethical gemstone sourcing?
I always start by researching the source, meeting miners and traders directly, and ensuring every gemstone is ethically and transparently sourced. Learn the full step-by-step process for buying gemstones safely at the source.
Can you help if I am planning to visit Sri Lanka or Vietnam?
Absolutely. I can help you prepare, understand what to expect, and approach the market informed — not overwhelmed.
How are your Gemstone Concierge Services paid?
I work on a transparent consultation fee plus trusted trade commission, always agreed in advance. This ensures transparent advice and full professional support. For a full overview of how the service works and what to expect, download ⬇️my Gemstone Concierge Pack pdf.
What makes your service different from going directly to suppliers?
Most suppliers work in their own interest. I work soley for you, independently reviewing stones, verifying authenticity, assessing value and ensuring ethical sourcing. Think of me as your personal advocate in the gemstone world.
How do I get started?
Start with a private consultation. We'll discuss your goals, budget and preferences. I'll guide you through the next steps, whether remotely or in person. Download ⬇️ my Gemstone Concierge pdf to see exactly what's included before booking.
