Microtext

These tiny texts make the document nearly impossible to photocopy or replicate.

Remark

Here, we leave notes on extra details you should know. This could include a specific laser inscription number found on the gem's edge, or specific testing limitations (such as noting if a stone wasn't tested for Beryllium treatment). It’s all about keeping things 100% transparent.

Report Title & Report Number

The report title immediately indicates the scope of the assessment—whether it is a comprehensive Full Report or a concise Brief Report—so you know exactly what level of detail to expect. Accompanying this is the report number, a unique serial identifier that acts as your gemstone’s personal ID. This number allows you to effortlessly track, reference, and verify your stone’s official records within our secure online system.

Description & Physical Properties

This section is used to physically match the paper to the actual stone.

Weight & Dimensions: The exact carat weight and millimetre measurements are essential for pricing and confirming the stone hasn't been swapped.

Shape & Cut: Gives you a clear idea of the gem's style and proportions.

Optical Properties (Transparency & Colour): We grade the clarity and colour shade, which are the main factors driving the beauty and value of the gem.

Comment/Treatment

This section has a huge impact on the gemstone's market value. We clearly state whether the gem is completely natural (unheated/untreated) or if it has been enhanced, such as through heat treatment or fracture filling. Knowing this helps you value the stone fairly and know how to care for it.

Identification

The core of the report. This definitively answers "What is this stone?" We tell you if it’s a natural gem, a synthetic, or an imitation. We list the scientific mineral species alongside its trade name (for example, Species: Corundum, Variety: Ruby), leaving no room for confusion.

Provenance

Where was the gemstone origin? Origin tells a story and can significantly boost a gem's market premium. For instance, knowing a ruby is from Myanmar (Burma) or a sapphire is from Kashmir makes it highly sought after by collectors.

Jewellery Description

This section paints a complete picture of the piece as a whole. It details the item type, the precious metal used (material and fineness), and the total gross weight in grams. This information is essential for verifying that the report perfectly matches the physical item in your hand.

Main Stone & Additional Stones

Here, we break down the specific details of both the centrepiece gem and any side stones. We evaluate the shape and cut, carat weight, colour grade, clarity grade, symmetry, and the type of setting.

(Note: Because the gems are already set in the metal, diamond grades are provided as an estimated range, as the setting restricts exact measurements. For coloured gemstones, clarity and symmetry grades are omitted).

Testing Results

This definitively answers the most important question: What is the gemstone? We list the scientific mineral species alongside its trade variety (for example, Species: Corundum, Variety: Ruby), giving you absolute certainty about what you own.

Comments (Treatments)

If a coloured gemstone has undergone any standard industry enhancements (such as heat treatment to improve colour), we state it clearly here. This transparency is vital for understanding your stone’s market value and knowing how to properly care for it. (This section is omitted for diamonds).
