When buying gemstones we recognise the importance of being able to reassure our customers about the quality of those items. An increasing number of gemstones and diamonds have been artificially enhanced or synthesised in a laboratory. Whilst some processes are legitimate, any enhancement or treatment should be disclosed to the customer at the point of sale.
Holts Lapidary Guarantee
Holts Lapidary have been buying and selling gemstones for over 70 years.
We have a team of qualified gemmologists on-hand to examine and inspect every gemstone. Each team member is either qualified by the Gemmological Association of Great Britain or the Gemmological Institute of America. We have our own in-house, fully equipped gemmological laboratory that our gemmologiists use to undertake all tests required. We do also have associated laboratories to undertake further tests if required. Each piece is examined under magnification and where necessary has undergone more rigurous testing in our in-house laboratory.
This means that every gemstone supplied (loose or in an item of jewellery) has undergone a strict process of inspection and testing. We put our name and reputation on everything we supply, knowing that we have taken meticulous care with the process of testing. Our 70 years reputation is underpinned by you being able to trust Holts Lapidary level of care taken and the duty to their customers.

"5 stars! My company has been working with Holts [Gems] for over 5 years and in that time they have consistently delivered an outstanding quality of work, supplying us with a range of bespoke cut stones. The service is friendly and professional and each job is given care and attention, no matter how small an order.

"Great team of friendly and knowledgable staff and selection of quality gem stones. I went to these guys on recommendation for stone cutting and Jan who I met was very helpful, he did a great job with the rough Opals, they look amazing and I can’t wait to use them in some new pieces! I’ll be back soon!"
