Gemstones

Looking for the best loose gemstones for your custom jewelry? If so, welcome to Allurez.com the Internet’s Favorite Jeweler for awesome gemstones and custom jewelry. Our easy-to-use search platform is the perfect place to find your favorite gems to create the perfect custom jewelry.

Search our collection for round blue sapphires, oval emeralds, pear shaped rubies, aquamarines, or any other semi-precious or precious gemstone.

Whether you want to gift a special person or add to your jewelry collection, our team will guide you to find awesome loose gemstones. The first thing to consider is the size/weight of the gem. Carat is the unit used to measure gemstones. Gemstones differ in density and hence size will matter a lot in determining the price. Our jewelry experts will help you find the best carat size gem to suit your jewelry needs and budget.

When buying gemstones, color is also a crucial factor. Gems vary widely in terms of color due to their composition. Color grade varies from colorless to those with distinct color such as green, yellow, brown among others. Colorless stones are rare and expensive. It is important to find a balance between color and price to find the perfect gemstones for your jewelry. Colorless gemstones are magnificent but expensive while colored stones embellish your jewelry and give it a more distinctive look.

The stone's clarity is another important factor. This refers to presence or absence of inclusions/flaws which are small marks formed during the natural process of crystallization. Gemstones are natural and will always have inclusions. However, you can find a great gemstone with few flaws not visible to the naked eye. The fewer the visible flaws, the better the overall appearance of the gemstone.

Balancing the four factors will ensure you find the perfect stone for your jewelry but it is not easy. To get started, set a budget and have an idea of the qualities you need in your jewelry in order to find the best gemstones.

At Allurez.com, we appreciate how difficult it is to find authentic gemstones on the market. This is why we work closely with our customers to ensure they find loose gemstones for your custom jewelry.

What is custom jewelry?

Custom jewelry is jewelry you can design from scratch, using your own vision of the perfect piece to help master jewelers create engagement rings, gemstone rings, pendants, earrings and other items to match your personal aesthetic. You can also tweak an existing design, making it more your own, or have a gemstone already in your possession put into a new setting, updating a family heirloom or making a simple ring into something breathtaking. Custom jewelry combines the best parts of your imagination with the talent of craftspeople who know how to make a sketch or concept come to life.

You can upload a sketch, submit a list of design ideas or use an existing design as your starting point.

How do you clean custom jewelry?

Once you bring home your new piece of custom jewelry, it’s important you know how to care for it. First, there’s the issue of storage. Always store your jewelry in a fabric lined box to protect the precious metal and stones from dirt, dust and scratches. Try to avoid coming in direct contact with too many self-care products like lotion or cosmetics by applying those products before putting on your jewelry. Use a polishing cloth for regular cleaning, and then soak in a warm solution including a few drops of mild liquid detergent and a drop of ammonia to help remove unsightly film and restore sparkle. Whatever your cleaning method, make sure it’s compatible with the type of metal and gemstone you’re cleaning to keep your jewelry in tip-top shape.
How much does custom jewelry cost?

The cost of custom jewelry depends on a wide variety of factors, including the type of metal and gemstone used as well as any added design elements such as inlaid stones, engraving or carving on the band or setting. With the Allurez Design Your Own jewelry tool, you can play with each element until you find a stone and setting that suits your budget. You can also upload a sketch, submit a list of design ideas or use an existing design as your starting point in order to create a truly one-of-a-kind piece. We also offer flexible financing so you can enjoy your dream purchase now and pay for it over time.
