Through a network of Gemologists and private collectors, we are able to obtain the highest possible monetary offer for you on Fine Kashmir Sapphires.
This includes either damaged or beautifully finished Kashmir stones, with original jewelry mountings or without. We pay by electronic transfer, check or cash. As a Gemologist and well known connoisseur of fine sapphires, I am frequently approached to either buy, sell or broker fine Kashmir sapphires.
Having a gemological laboratory of my own my gemological associates and I can confirm whether or not a Kashmir sapphire is heated to enhance the depth of color, the stone is, in fact, a Kashmir sapphire, OR a sapphire from another known locale.
