Where our team of expert gemologists uses state-of-the-art equipment to evaluate and certify the authenticity of precious stones. Today, we take you on a journey through our lab and show you the intricate process of gem testing.
Hi, I'm John, and I'm one of the certified gemologists here at IGEC lab Let me take you through the process of how we test a gem. So, the first thing we do is clean the gemstone thoroughly. We use a high-pressure steam cleaner to ensure that the gemstone is free of any dirt or debris. Once the gemstone is clean, we examine it under a microscope to check for any inclusions or blemishes. Inclusions are natural imperfections inside the gem, while blemishes are surface marks. We then use a refractometer to measure the gem's refractive index. The refractive index is a crucial factor in identifying the gemstone's identity Next, we use a spectroscope to analyze the gem's spectral colors. Each gemstone has its unique set of spectral colors, making this a vital test in determining the gemstone's identity. Finally, we grade the gemstone's color, clarity, cut, and carat weight. These factors determine the gem's overall value.
And there you have it, folks! At IGEC, we take pride in our work and guarantee accurate and reliable gemstone identification. So if you're in the market for a precious stone, come to us, and we'll help you make an informed decision.
