Gemstones We Sell

Gemstones We Offer

Gems Of Zodiac offers full line of genuine, earth mined gemstones in all of our jewelry collections. As a matter of fact, most of our stones including diamonds are genuine unless it states clearly Lab-Grown in the item title and description. However, due to some stones being very rare, hard to find and therefore overly expensive, we offer a lab-created alternative that makes it as quality but way more affordable. Stones created in a lab are chemically, physically and optically identical to those mined underground — but they have fewer flaws, a lighter carbon footprint and cost less, too.

Lab-created stones we sell are practically the same stones you find in nature except they are man-made and are generally better than the real thing.

The main distinction is natural gems typically have inclusions from the crystallization process — gases and other minerals mixing during the molten stage of stone creation. Because lab created stones rely on a steady, controlled process of applying minerals, heat and pressure, they usually have fewer inclusions.

Lab Created Alternatives

Currently, Gems Of Zodiac offers 4 lab created gemstone alternatives:

Alexandrite - The natural alexandrite is recognized as an extremely rare and hard to find gemstone. Its distinguishing characteristic is the color change phenomenon, varying from a greenish blue in daylight to a reddish purple in incandescent light. We offer the highest quality of lab created alexandrite on the market, which is not only inclusion free but changes colors just like the real thing.

Ruby - Rubies are one of the rarest gemstones. The rarest rubies come from Burma (Myanmar), due to their high quality and exceptional color. Good quality rubies larger than one carat are also extremely rare - and expensive. Together with genuine rubies, Gems Of Zodiac offers a line of very affordable, chemically and visually similar lab created rubies which makes your jewelry as beautiful and far less pricey.

Sapphire - A good quality sapphire could be a rare and expensive find too. While Gems Of Zodiac does offer real, earth mined sapphires in all of our jewelry, an identical, clear and clean version of lab created sapphires is always on the menu for those who want to have a great stone at a great price.

Emerald - Emeralds are actually 20 times more rarer than diamonds and a good, clean emerald could truly shoot the price of the jewelry skywards. Therefore, together with the real, earth mind ones, Gems Of Zodiac offers a good, clean, quality lab created alternative.
