We ordered a emerald from Gandhara… We ordered a emerald from Gandhara Gemstones a couple of weeks ago. The pictures shown in the site, were exactly what we received. At the time of purchase we made backup pictures of the stone. Then used digital scopes to compare inclusions. Emeralds are about 400 times rarer than diamonds, but yield similar characteristics. Diamonds are 10 on Mohs scale, emeralds typically are 7. But that's still hard enough to verify facets, edges using lights and the reflective surfaces on the stone. Our stone had the proper reflective surfaces. There was no zebra inclusions or bubbles, typically found on fake stones. I believe we worked with Farooq? They stay on top of the orders.

Excellent Quality Minerals Shipping was a bit long to N.America, but it is what it is. The important part is the minerals were exactly as described and show even better in person. Will definitely be purchasing more from Gandhara.

Packaged securely, delivered promptly, and stones true to the videos and images provided.

Excellent company, excellent Gems and excellent service! I have worked with Gandhara Gems for two years now. He has always been extremely knowledgeable and free with his information. I have bought several gems from him and they are beautiful well cut and colors that conform to industry standards of the best colors and clarities. I strongly support this company and only use him and so should you. You cannot go wrong and his return policy is excellent as well.

Amazing value and service! Ordered a gorgeous peridot stone assisted by great customer service. Even my jeweler in NYC was impressed with the stone. Now set into a gold ring. Compliments galore. Thanks for an awesome product and prompt expert advice!
