Precious Gemstones

Coloured gemstones add a vibrant and personalized touch to jewellery, offering a spectrum of hues to suit every style and taste. From the fiery red of rubies to the serene blue of sapphires, each gemstone boasts its own unique allure and symbolism. Coloured precious gemstones are featuring more frequently in custom designed engagement rings due to their unique colours and cuts. At Ryley Jewellery Creations, we take pride in sourcing the finest quality coloured gemstones to create exquisite and one-of-a-kind pieces for our clients.

When selecting coloured gemstones for your custom jewellery piece, it's essential to consider several factors that contribute to their beauty and value.

Just like diamonds, it’s extremely important to consider the colour,clarity, cut and carat when choosing any coloured gemstone.

The hue, tone, and saturation of a coloured gemstone are crucial factors in determining its quality. Vibrant, evenly distributed colour is highly prized, while any visible colour zoning or inconsistencies may affect the gemstone's value.

While some inclusions are natural and can add character to a gemstone, excessive inclusions may affect its brilliance and transparency.

A well-cut gemstone will exhibit excellent light reflection and dispersion, maximising its visual appeal.

The overall beauty and quality of the gemstone should be prioritised over size alone.
