Toronto Jeweller Offers Buyer’s Guide On
Finding Quality Sapphires
Have you ever wondered what the
difference between a heat-treated and
a non-heat-treated sapphire is?
Notice how some sapphires are just
brighter and clearer than others? The
new report from Skyjems.ca will
explain!
The newly released report from the
company has been designed as a
practical resource for individuals
interested in the difference between
the two types of sapphires, and their
benefits when used in engagement
jewellery.
Sapphires have been
considered a beautiful and
highly coveted mineral for
brides across history, and their
popularity stays strong even
today.
Modern technology has allowed
expert jewellers to further increase
the beauty of the gems through
innovative heating processes,
drawing out deeper or brighter
shades in the stones, depending on
their quality.
The article from Skyjems.ca
discusses the various heat
treatments that can be carried out
on sapphires, explaining the
procedures that mimic natural
processes in a much shorter time.
Heating the gems may be carried
out with oxygen if you wish to
lighten the stone, without oxygen
for a darker colour, or to remove
silk or asterism from a sapphire.
The report goes on to discuss
whether the heating treatments
outlined weaken the gems in any
way, discussing the durability of
heated sapphires and the
differences in the prices between
treated and untreated stones.
Skyjems.ca continue by explaining
the importance of an honest gem
dealer when you're purchasing
sapphires and sapphire jewellery to
ensure that the right information is
provided to you with the sale.
With the latest announcement,
the company continues to
invest in offering guaranteed
sapphires of high quality to
customers online and in the
Toronto area.
The report reads: "Skyjems.ca
offers many certified sapphires and
provides a 100% guarantee on our
stock, and we provide Gemological
Institute of America certificates for
many of our high-end gems."
