korea 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2007 If I dun remember wrongly, also depend on the 4Cs .. but for coloured stones like ruby, emerald and sapphire, there are definately more inclusions that diamonds..more inclusions huh. hubby is quite particular about inclusions (i mean when buying diamond, i don't know about color stones). colour stones very subjective...u see it, u like it means u like it.even if u go see others u oso wont fancy othersno hard and fast rule how to judge a colour stone.it's more of personal preference.the lady told me normally colour stones has no cert coz it's quite subjective. and i guess it's not as straightforward as diamonds if it has the 4Cs? coz as u said, there're more inclusions in it...oh, that's mean like then can liao lor. korea, perhaps u can read this and summarize for us http://gemstone-guide.com/3.htmlyou do it lah b'cos you got own a color stone and should know better.

However, the 4Cs still apply when valuing a coloured stone. Cos these stones will also have colour, clarity and cut .. But it is all subjective.. some ppl prefer a dark colour, while other may prefer a medium colour which can show abit of sparkle.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
