Gemstone	Natural Unheated Blue Sapphire
Weight	4.27 carats
Treatment	None. Fully Natural, Untreated Blue Sapphire
Origin	Srilanka / Ceylon
Planetary Energy	Saturn
Patron Location	Texas / USA
All inclusive Price	$ 1946.50 / INR 97325
Comments	Blue Sapphire also called as the Neelam has many benefits according to Indian Vedic Astrology. Gem of the powerful planet Lord Saturn/Shani Dev it has to be one of the fastest acting gemstones and one of the most impact creating gemstones.

While selecting Blue Sapphire one should pay special attention that no flaws as listed in the sacred texts are present as they lead to negative results. This leads us to the discussion about what exactly is a Jyotish gemstone.

A Jyotish Gemstone is a special class of a Gem that not only excels on the 4câ€™s of cut, color, clarity ,carat weight and lack of any enhancing treatment but it also has to be free from any of the flaws that cause detrimental results as per the sacred texts.

This information is available to only a chosen few.

For example one of the flaws listed in the Shastras to avoid in a Blue Sapphire is that it should not be Dudhiya.

Dudhiya means it should not have spiral inclusions to a degree that a portion of the Sapphire looks milky. A Blue Sapphire which is a Dudhiya will cause loss from position and problems to oneâ€™s progeny.

There are 16 such flaws listed in the sacred texts that the Blue Sapphire should be free of. So it might be possible that the Blue Sapphire might be unheated and natural, excels on the 4Câ€™s and cost thousands of Dollars but still not be a Jyotish Gem if it is a Dudhiya or has any flaws listed in the sacred text. Similarly there are flaws listed for each of the 9 primary gemstones that have to be absolutely absent for a Gemstone to function as a Jyotish Gemstone and not cause negative results.

Featured here is a fine sky Blue Sapphire of 4.27 carats. Notice the pleasing color, fine clarity leading to scintillation and electric lustre. Lack of any heat enhancement, the cut, and color, clarity and carat weight make it a very special Jyotish gemstone because not only it excels on the 4câ€™s and lack of treatment, it is free from any flaw as listed in the sacred texts.

Such a Blue Sapphire will bring good fortune and wealth to its wearer. The excellence on the 4câ€™s lend it beauty and allure and freedom from any flaws render it powerful and potent to give the promised results.

Note: At Gemstoneuniverse we move with a passion and service towards planetary gem therapy. Every single staff member is a GIA certified Gemologist plus an expert in examination of the Gemstones as per the sacred texts. Every Single Gemstone that makes it to the Gemstoneuniverse inventory is a True Jyotish Gem that delivers true results.

Rubies â€“ Soon to be Stuff of Legends & a New royal Lot

October 16, 2011 by gemstoneuniverse 1 Comment

Rubies â€“ Soon to be Stuff of Legends

The Gemstoneuniverse Advantage

And why gemstones will give you the best bang for your buck

The Insider Scoop on Natural Ruby Situation

New Lot Helios

The most preferred mode of investment for the super rich across the world is gems. The advantage with gemstones is not just their value and their amazing ability to condense a few million dollars into a few millimetres of space, but the fact that since nature will take another million years to produce such rare and precious lovelies, their price will only be North-bound!

While stocks and bullion may not play along forever bringing you increasing fortunes, gemstones are an assured bet! Case in point is the price of the gemstones. Now this talk is not just some information gleaned from the retail trade that is tremendously disorganised and does not have a standard to adhere to, but from the environs of the hub of gem trade where B2B exchanges determine which way is the trade headed.

Of course, paucity of good knowledge and inability to identify goods of great quality as well as origins is a factor that keeps ignorance and malpractices rife in the general retail gem trade, especially in certain Asian nations.

But then what is Gemstoneuniverse there for â€“ Not only do we bring you best of gemstones, but our endeavour is also to debunk random notions/ rumours to bring the best of the information about gems to you as well.

To get the picture better, just consider the new lot of unheated, untreated, jyotish grade rubies acquired by Gemstone Universe recently. Arenâ€™t they really gorgeous and alive with the fire within?

Well, some time ago Gemstoneuniverse posted two stories, reporting about the sheer unavailability of good, natural, unheated, untreated rubies even at the Gem trade show BGJF, held bi annually at Bangkok.

Ruby Situation Report from the 46^th Bangkok Show can be accessed here

Ruby Situation report from the 47^th Bangkok Show can be accessed here.

The situation is only getting drierâ€¦ if you can put it that way, for no matter how much you forage, the goods you are looking for seem to have disappeared altogether from the markets. What ever is up for grabs is at a price point that is prohibitive for the common man! Good Burma Ruby is now beyond reach and Mozambique Ruby prices have gone up by 40% from February 2011 to September 2011. In less than 7 months there has been an increase of 40% just due to the sheer rarity of unheated fine quality Ruby.

Here we would like to address one common thought that runs in the minds of some consumers- At price does a Gemstone cost to Gemstoneuniverse?. There is a full dedicated article to colored Gemstone Pricing but here what we would like to point out that once a Gemstone is listed on Gemstoneuniverse its price never gets changed. So if you buy Rubies that were listed 5 or 6 months back you already have a return on your investment.

Have a look at some of the unheated Rubies offered by a reputable Vendor at the Bangkok Show

The reality of Natural Ruby Pricing. Insider Information. B2B Pricing as of Sep 2011

This image speaks by itself what multiple lengthy expositions by any of us wouldnâ€™t suffice. Rubies with good levels of clarity and are not available even in B2B deals at a good price. The price per carat starts at USD 2000/- roughly translating to INR 1 Lac! There is no limit to where it can go upward depending on how good the color, size, rarity and clarity are. So if a B2B buyer gets this price, can you imagine the price of genuine unheated, untreated natural rubies in the retail market!

The Vendor refuses to sell or negotiate for these goods because he is well aware of the market situation. He is comfortable in holding back these goods because he knows that in another couple of months the prices will still go up.

Now, these goods are fine, they are natural, they are unheated but are these Jyotish Quality? The answer is a resounding No. The clarity level in these goods ranges from 60%-70% and the color is also not anything special but still these goods are commanding the above B2B Price.

Really. You need to wake up and smell the beans.

You have an option with us. Please have a re-look at the prices at which Gemstoneuniverse is still making good ruby available to you. It is not for nothing that we are known for providing amazing quality goods at great prices. Donâ€™t be amazed and donâ€™t look for riders â€“ we own precious roughs of good gemstones, so despite the market conditions, we still are able to get you great rubies, whether they are from Mozambique or Madagascar or in rare cases from Burma â€“ at a good price. Of course, Burmese stones already legendary are soon going to acquire the â€˜no longer availableâ€™ status.

Buy while you can. Rubies are an investment that will be worth your while for begetting fortune and worth your money too.

To delight our Gemstoneuniverse Patrons we present our new lot, the pride of 2011, the catch of 2011- The Lot Helios.

Salient Features of this Lot

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Super fine color. One look and you are in love.

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Fully Natural, unheated, earth mined enhancement free rubies from Mozambique.

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Gorgeous clarity levels of 85%-95% or more. Combine color and clarity and here you have a Sattvik Vedic Gem- a Jyotish Quality Gem that creates peace, prosperity, abundance and real tangible results.

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Price-At Gemstoneuniverse we hate to harp on this. You can easily compare prices on the internet by looking at product quality, specifications and if you have access to insider information as provided above, We shall offer these wonders to Gemstoneuniverse patrons that beats B2B price.

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â These Rubies are Vedic Wonders, absolutely top notch Jyotish quality.

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Certification& Appraisal of this lot is complete and these should be online in the next 14 business days.

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Fully Royal and Resplendent just like their planetary Lord-Sun the Divine Surya.

Ruby represents the positive powers of the Sun God-Surya

We would also like to address two questions that came up recently by mails:

Q1) Â Whether a 90% clear Rubellite would be more effective for Sun in Vedic Gem Therapy than a 80% clear Â unheated ruby.

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Well the answer toÂ that is 100 tonnes of 100% clear Rubellite would not match up to the power of Â½ carat Ruby provided it is Natural, Unheated, Full of life and color and is 80% clear or above.

Q2) This one is rather ironical given the fact that this mail sender says he admires our work and goes on to say that he has purchased a 6 carat Ruby ring set in Panchdhatu( Mix of 5 metals) and he is already wearing a Red Coral Ring. Can he wear 2 Red color Stones in one ring. His expert Jyotisha( Astrologer) has asked him to do so?

Here is your answer in 3 simple sentences:

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â If you really have a 6 carat ruby which is Jyotish quality and natural, you can buy the whole listed inventory of Gemstoneuniverse Ruby section with that kind of funds. Please read the market report above

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â In such a case you donâ€™t need the Astrologer; he needs you, in fact you will be one of the most sought after individuals in the whole word if the descriptions in the sacred texts are accurate because to own such a Gem you will be a chosen one by Sun God himself. Do read about Lord Krishna and the Syamantaka Ruby

-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Unless and until your horoscope truly indicates use of such a combination, and unless and until your expert is really knowledgeable about Gemstones and their effect on Chakras and the endocrine system please do not be a party to such a dangerous experiment. You can get fried. Just try to stand under a hot summer Sun for 10 minutes and feel the heat. If that is a real Ruby that you are wearing that impact would be 1000 times greater.

Some Faqâ€™s answered in this post:

a) Is exceptional color and clarity levels present in smaller carat weight gemstones?

b) What is the metaphysical limitation to the weight of the Gemstone one can wear?

Gemstone	Natural Unheated Blue Sapphire
Weight	5.05 carats
Treatment	None. Fully Natural, Unheated Blue Sapphire

Patron Location	Singapore
All inclusive Price	$9589/ INR 470819/-
Comments	This Blue Sapphire is the epitome of a Jyotish Quality Blue Sapphire. First it is fully natural free from any kind of heat treatment or thermal enhancement. That being said is a 5+ carat Gemstone. That is not all it is Loupe clean yes loupe clean with a color so intense and pure that is grabs your attention at the first go.Cut masterfully to ensure maximum movement of light and highlight the intense lustre and fire within this nature has rendered this Blue Sapphire very powerful. It is an instrument of destiny re-calibration for the better. Going to a patron from whom this is the 3^rd upgrade we would like to address some of the mails received when the stunner 12.87 carats was featured: Many individuals wanted to know that if such stunning gemstones are available in lesser weights. Well yes, here is one. The price shoots up by geometrical progression as the carat weight increases. Two such masterpieces with the same clarity level and the superb much desired color can be viewed at the Gemstoneuniverse website. These can be accessed using the links given below: Another question was is there a metaphysical limitation to the carat weight one can wear. Natural Flawless Jyotish Gemstones are very powerful. First time users should stick to the carat weight recommended after analysis of several charts. One should stay with that Gemstone with a minimum period of 6 months to a year regardless of the speed of positive results to assess tolerance. If one feels comfortable then one should go for a radical upgrade in color and clarity level. The maximum jumps in carat weight from the original recommendation should be in the range of +1.5-2 carats max. This strategy guarantees exceptional results with safety and harmony

Consecration of your talisman â€“ Encrypting your spiritual DNA

August 9, 2011 by gemstoneuniverse Leave a Comment

Consecration of your talisman Encrypting your spiritual DNA

Vedic Puja of Gemstones-The vital purity portion of consecration to get the most powerful results!

The Gemstoneuniverse Difference!

Consecration, by dictionary definition refers to setting apart for sacred use. When we say that your talisman viz. a ring, a pendant or any other talisman is consecrated and energized in your name, it refers to a process where by the talisman is set apart in the scheme of universe to be of singular use to you and only you. The talisman’s vital energy is boosted over several times by Vedic mantras and it’s intrinsic energies are synced with YOUR person, specifically.

Just like fingerprints are unique and your DNA is unique, the combination of your name, nakshatra (constellation) and rashi/ rasi (moon sign) collectively carry the coding of your spiritual identity, your real DNA! When a talisman is made, the process itself is started at an auspicious time that would be conducive to realization of your objectives, using electional astrology. Once the talisman is ready, it is then consecrated and energized!

By consecration is meant the essential process of the shodashopchar puja. According to the Hindu sacred texts only the shodashopchar puja/ consecration of 16 sacred steps is regarded as the complete prayer ritual. Before beginning of the puja, a sankalpa (stricture akin to a sacred oath) is taken chanting the name, nakshtra and rasi of the individual for whom the talisman has been made and objectives are spelled clearly for attaining which, the individual desires to wear the talisman of establish it in a sacred space.

A symbolic representation of the presiding deity of the gemstone talisman is also established and offered pujas.

View the video below that has short clippings of the whole Vedic Pooja of a Planetary Gemstone! In this case a Blue Sapphire was being consecrated for a patron. Note the placement of The Blue Sapphire on the Hand of Lord Ganapathi-The Ultimate Blessing!

The shodashopchar puja essentially means the prayer ceremony of 16 rituals, namely:

-Aavahan or invocation of the deity

-Aasan or giving a worthy aasan or seat

-Paadyam or washing the feet, as has been done traditionally for ages, to welcome a guest.

-Arghyam or offering of holy water sprinkled on the head or given for washing the hands of

-the guest – in this case, the deity ruling the Gem

-Aachaman or purifying of self so as to be worthy of conducting the puja

– Snanam or bathing the deity with water, milk, curds, ghee (clarified butter), honey and sugar (these are then collected as panchamrata/ panchamrita (five nectars) and distributed as prasadam). The deity is again given a cleansing bath with Vermillion, tumeric and flowers mixed in water one by one.

– Vastra or adorning the deity in suitable clothing

-Yagnopaveeta or donning the sacred thread for the deity

-Gandham or applying sandalwood paste

– Alankaar or dressing up the deity as is deserving of a regal entity, with all ornaments, flowers and ornaments. (You will note in the video that the temple doors are closed by the priests for adorning the deity in private.)

-Pushpa or offering of flowers to the deity

-Dhoop or offering incense sticks

-Deepam or offering a lit ghee lamp to the deity

-Naivedyam or offering food to the deity (Please note that the priests prepare/cook this prasadam strictly on their own observing all. It is not got / bought from anywhere or anyone. Only the fruits may be bought.)

-Tambulam or offering paan(betel) leaves and betel nut

-Neerajanam or offering the final aarti

In essence, the powers of the deity are invoked as requested to make abode in the talisman and work for gain of objectives and general welfare of the individual in question. At all times the appropriate mantras are chanted. It is a holistic process that is meticulously carried out at our end so that all you have to do is to wear the gem see your life turn around for the better.

The pujas doneÂ is carried out by Vedic priests who have been rigorously trained at the Vedic Paathshaalas (vedic schools) from their childhood. All processes are followed to the T to ensure that sanctity and purity are maintained and that the blessings of the presiding deity of the Gemstone ring/Talisman and Lord Ganesha- The Lord who is the remover of all obstacles reach you!

Note: Some of you dear patrons send us a mail asking should any mantra be chanted on the date of wearing the ring this is for you- Much as we understand your dedication to do these procedures please understand that your Vedic Gemstone Ring/Pendant/talisman has undergone a full fledged Shodashopchara pooja. Â To get the best benefits please just follow the instructions sent to you to get the best results! You do not have to perform any other procedures. Keep your therapy error free.

Guard yourself against Useless Fake Pearls for Jyotish Gemstone Therapy-Don’t deceive yourself. Keshi Pearls, South Sea Pearls & Chinese Pearl are cultured and Non Natural Pearls.

June 13, 2011 by gemstoneuniverse 3 Comments

Guard yourself against Useless Fake Pearls for Jyotish Gemstone Therapy-Don’t deceive yourself. Keshi Pearls, South Sea Pearls & Chinese Pearl are cultured and Non Natural Pearls.

A Sad event and several time wasting similar communication prompted this post. Last year a patron had taken a Gemstone recommendation from us. Her primary motive for reaching out to us was to bring some harmony in her marital life and relief from stress. Now she has Moon in Scorpio– a debilitating position discussed in detail by Guruji Shrii Arnav. You can access that resource at the link below:

http://www.gemstoneuniverse.com/

planetarypositions.php

To cut a long story short, she was recommended to wear an unheated Yellow Sapphire and a Natural Pearl. This year June 2011 we hear from her saying:

I have been wearing Pearl and Yellow Sapphire as per your recommendation but things have gone bad to worse and my Husband has filed for a divorce

Now these Gemstones were not sourced from us. In most of these cases of failure and incorrect therapy we try to be as factual as possible and asked her to scan across her Gemstone certificates including the X Ray Radiography for the Pearl so that we could assess if she was actually wearing Jyotish Quality Gemstones or not.

Her reply was: Do I need to get the radiography report now that He has already filed for Divorce?

We have hundreds of such case studies and we shall now be starting a section for the same!

But again request all of you the nth Time- Read the Article-Do Gemstones Work – No They Don’t for 90% of the People by Guruji Shrii Arnav and you shall find your solution there. If you read it a hundred times you shall get a new message that has the potential to alter the Karmik Life Map. Please click the link below to read the article:

http://www.gemstoneuniverse.com/

gemsdontwork.php

Keeping our discussion short and crisp about these Pearls featured below. Check out the Video below for the exhibits information. All these Pearls are imitation Pearls with zero value in Gem Therapy. They cannot be used for Moon energy. They will deliver absolutely zero results to be used as a Moon Gemstone. They are 100 % cultured imitation pearls. Cheap, beautiful but zero results.

To know more about what exactly is a Real Natural Pearl please click the resource below:

http://www.p-g-a.org/pearls.html

To be used in the sacred science of Jyotish and Planetary Gemology a Pearl has to be fully natural, made in nature by accident, full of lustre and not by irritating a living organism and calling it culture? Just visit a Pearl Farming area and see how surgery is performed on the mollusc and what extra things are done to increase yield. You will never wear or patronize these Pearls again.

Exhibit A

Keshi Pearl: A keshi pearl is a non-beaded pearl formed by accident as a by-product of a pearl culturing operation. Among all these Pearls this one is used by unethical traders citing it as original due to its irregular surface. Keshi has its use in jewellery but for planetary Gem therapy purposes it is useless. Some traders even go a bit further in their sales pitch and call it as a Burmese Pearl which again is not a natural pearl. We did a detailed story on Burmese Pearl and that can be found at the resource below:

http://gemstoneuniverse.com/blog/?s=burmese+pearl

Exhibit B

South Sea Pearl

A South Sea pearl is pearl produced by the Pinctada maxima mollusk. They are currently cultured in areas throughout the Indian and Pacific Oceans, primarily in Australia, the Philippines, Indonesia and Myanmar. Unethical traders cite the dots on the Pearl or a protrusion to peddle it as Natural. Most auction sites will have vendors with the higesht quanity of cheap south sea pearl. They sell it calling it as Moti and 100% real. Ask for a X Ray certificate and these vendors shall vanish in thin air. This is the highest selling pearl by unethical elements.

Most of the south sea pearls are cultured and only a few rare ones-the miracles of nature are natural.

And if they are natural they will be accompanied with a X Ray ReportÂ to find out if there are really natural or not.

Buy Pearl Stone Online | Buy Pearl Stone Online in India

Exhibit C

A cheap Chinese Tissue nucleated button Pearl. This is the most commercially abused Pearl quality especially in India. You can buy a Kilo of them for Rs. 1000($22), Yes 1 Kg for Rs.1000 should you reach the right source. Again it is not natural and Zero Value for planet moon.

Exhibit D

A Pearl Stand necklace from Hyderabad. Under the royal Patronage of the Nizams Hyderabad developed as a major Pearl centre. Pearls come in many shapes and of particular interest is the ‘rice-pearl’ – a tiny variety, available in great depth in Char Kaman, Gulzar Haouz and General Bazaar. Around 300 years ago there was a rich influx of Arabian Pearls in Hyderabad. But now Hyderabad is known for rice pearls. Most of the Natural Pearls have gone and what is traded are the above 3 varieties in the desolate hope to cash on the fame of the past. More than 99 percent of pearl coming is cultured pearl which again is cheap and is of no value as a Moon Gemstone. Here is what Wikipedia has to Say about Hyderabad Pearls.

In the village of Chandanpet just outside Hyderabad, almost the entire population is engaged in the delicate art of drilling pearls. A skill they have practiced for generations, making Hyderabad one of the largest drilling centres in India. Once the pearls are drilled, they are boiled for about four days to bleach them and rid them of their dark color. They are placed in glass bottles containing hydrogen peroxide, water and ether and sunned for four or five days in glass sun boxes with a mirror base. Finally they are washed and separated through series of different shapes and sizes.

Now are these natural?

Use these Pearls as Jewellery or as adornments. But don’t bluff yourself into believing that this cheap material will work. It will not.

Always wear a Natural Pearl to get good results from Gem therapy and Insist on a Certificate cum x ray report. That single report will cost more than all these exhibits put together. Everything in that video put together will cost less than a proper certification cum xray.

If you budget does not allow you to wear a Natural Pearl then opt for a Natural Blue Sheen Moonstone. If your budget does not allow that too then wait and accumulate funds slowly for a Real natural Jyotish Quality Pearl -a miracle of nature capable of creating a miracle in your life. Don’t deceive yourself.

Issued in Public Interest and for the cause of Sacred Planetary Gemology.

Addendum on 29th July 2011

We have no idea whether she read this report or not but what is ironical and unfortunate is that in 11th July 2011 we received a scanned sheet of paper which she says is a certificate. This is no certificate. It is a paper that says something to the effect of – Sajha Moti Nu Praman Patra and goes on to say as per our opinion Pearl is real and all testing is done at Owner’s risk.

Excuse us, we do not want your opinion. We want the facts that you should state on the certificate after proper X-Ray diffraction tests. If you have a certificate similar to one she sent, you know what to do.

Adequate time for Order Processing! Those in a Hurry Need to Read this resource first!

Adequate time for Order Processing

Ensuring your satisfaction

Hurry, hurry and more hurry-That does not make us change the perfect process.

Gemstoneuniverse.com-The Gold Standard in Planetary Gemology

A first-rate organizer is never in a hurry. He is never late. He always keeps up his sleeve a margin for the unexpected.

— Arnold Bennett

There is the big question of speed versus quality. In any work that has to do with precious high value gemstones and jewelry, there is one sure way to shoot oneself in the leg and that is to give precedence to speed over the quality of work delivered.

At Gemstoneuniverse, each and every piece of jewelry or talisman ordered by patrons is accorded importance from the word go. All specifications recommended to and desired by the customers are verified.

In cases where customers require specific design elements to be incorporated or avoided, specifications are cross checked yet again, to leave no room for ambiguity. The bench jeweler is consulted for the feasibility of the design. The wearer would definitely want durability & wearability along with the product measuring centum or thereabouts on aesthetic value. Since delivering maximum value to the patron is the primary aim, often times we discourage patrons from ordering certain designs or pieces of jewelry that may prove to be a bad decision later on.

Creating a fine and exclusive piece of Jewelry with a rare and precious gemstone requires time besides love, respect for the sacred knowledge of planetary gemology,creativity and attention to detail.

Creating an exquisite piece that you cherish over a lifetime requires time besides love, creativity and attention to detail.

The output of any process, product delivery or service is largely contingent upon the input. We at our end do hold the onus of a large portion of input. You as a discerning customer must understand the value you bring in towards the finished product by way of providing adequate and precise information and allowing adequate and optimum time for the process of gem setting, consecration and appraisal to be facilitated. Clear instructions, exact communication and that you know what you want, are facts that are appreciated.

Gemstone setting is an art and hurrying the process is compromising on the quality of workmanship and endangering the gemstone. Certain soft gemstones like emerald require great care as one single careless strike could fracture the stone rendering it useless for any purpose. Now that’s a lot of money gone down the drain! And more than the money effort and the sense of loss of losing a real gemstone! Melting the metal requires heat and delicate material like nacre which cannot withstand heat cannot be set and reset all the time!

Also, we at Gemstoneuniverse would like you to hold back your desire to buy if you are inordinately hurried (Please note what endears us to our patrons is our perfect process that delivers great value and lifetime buyback. We understand that some of you are in a real hurry but we shall not compromise on the process because of this. To read about the flawless process please click here.). This is the worst possible time to take a decision regarding a gemstone purchase. We would like you to place an order with the when you can give us adequate time (Please see the timelines given in the shipping section. You can access the same by clicking here. Till date there has not been one order that has not met this specification.

Another set of data that we would like to provide is that our average turnaround time is 50% faster than any bench jeweler dealing with precious and rare gemstones throughout the world).

This enables us to ensure

– that exact design specifications are met

– that the gemstone in your talisman touches the skin

– that your precious gemstone has been set securely

– Gemstoneuniverse has an exceptional turnaround time but we would not want to deliver work that is even a notch below our strict standards of quality.

– The factors like appropriate strikes, national holidays, and transport delays are not within our control. The product can be appraised by government authorities only on working days and sudden holiday announcements may throw your delivery schedule off track. It is only sensible to add a margin for any such exigencies and not have too tight a time period.

Our services have been appreciated and the brand has achieved recognition simply by the virtue of the fact that no element of the process is diluted and all instructions are adhered to. We would like you to know that despite all the checks, we would still have a better turnaround time that any offered by the fine jewelry houses like Tiffany’s, Bvlgari, Christian Bauer etc. which range anywhere between three to six weeks and our job is more complex since we deal in Jyotish Gemstones the pinnacle of all Gemstones. Our work does not just stop at making a beautiful piece; we have further work in getting certifications, appraisals and consecrating it.

Also, it is only in your interest to think out your requirements carefully. You will be able to avoid drawbacks where:

– You may not have been able to explore options available

– You may not have thought carefully about what is it that you truly want in terms of objectives desired out of a purchase

– The design that you choose hurriedly may not seem so appropriate after a while

– Gemstone purchases require significant investment on your part. You might want to spruce up your knowledge adequately before making the purchase. This is greatly helpful in ridding your own mind of the doubts. There are sources of doubt aplenty and may lead to doubt, primarily because they would like to peddle their ware rather than have you buy elsewhere.

We look forward to your intelligent purchase! Happy to help

So when the next time you call up and say you are in a Hurry, we would request you to access this resource first.
