I can only recommend Gandhara Gemstones… I can only recommend Gandhara Gemstones and Farooq is a really wonderful salesmen that takes the utmost care of his customer's wishes and needs. I had a request for a pretty complex custom piece made with one of his gems and it turned out better than I could ever wish for. It was not the cheapest price I've ever paid, but the care and workmanship I got in return were well worth it. I will return to Farooq anytime I'll need a top class gemstone or custom piece.

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.

Fast shipment Fast shipment. Gemstone ordered is nice. Very good experience !

I'm only interested in mineral… I'm only interested in mineral specimens so I can't attest to the gemstones offered on this site. However, I can comment on the minerals, and they are great! There is a wide selection of mineral types, the quality is great and the photos and information are as good as you'll see. Plus, the prices are fair and I've always had prompt responses from the vendor. For these reasons, I've given a top review.
