Market prices per carat

Indicative US dollar ranges by grade, drawn from published dealer and auction figures. Each bar sits on one scale from $100 to $50,000, so you can compare a stone with the next at a glance.

The stones we sell

Every stone is photographed on its own and sold with its weight, origin, treatment status and, where we hold one, a laboratory report.

What makes a stone valuable

Short guides to the stones we sell most. Colour comes first, then clarity, cut, size, origin and treatment, in different order for each species.

About us

apwgems does not mine gemstones. We source stones from miners, cutters and established dealers, then sell them on.

That means we are a trading business, and we say so up front. What we do is choose stones carefully, check them, describe them accurately and price them against the market.

  • We buy cut and rough stones from suppliers we know. We do not own or operate any mine.
  • We state treatment (heated, oiled, untreated) on every listing.
  • Origin is stated only when a laboratory report supports it.
  • Prices follow the market and are quoted stone by stone.
