Understanding Gemstone Quality
Gemstone quality depends on the 4 Cs, similar to diamonds:
Colour
The richer, brighter, and more vivid the colour, the higher the value.

Fewer visible inclusions make a gemstone more valuable.
Cut
A good cut ensures the gemstone sparkles beautifully.
Carat
Refers to weight. Larger stones are rarer and more valuable.
