From the sparkling splendor of a diamond to the captivating allure of a ruby, gemstones hold an unparalleled power to captivate and enchant. At Shelby Gem Factory, our passion for these natural wonders fuels a relentless pursuit of innovation and excellence. As experts in the realm of synthetic gemstones, moissanite, and cubic zirconia, we are dedicated to elevating the brilliance and beauty of these exceptional creations through our cutting-edge artistry.
Gemstone Characteristics
At the heart of our expertise lies a deep understanding of the intricate properties that define a gemstone’s character. The refractive index, which measures how light bends and refracts within the gem, is a crucial factor in determining its brilliance and sparkle. Equally important is dispersion, the ability of a gemstone to split light into its vibrant spectral colors, creating the captivating “fire” that sets the finest gems apart.
Shelby Gem Factory’s mastery extends beyond these fundamental attributes, delving into the nuances of scintillation – the mesmerizing dance of light and dark areas that epitomizes a gemstone’s captivating allure. By meticulously analyzing and harnessing these characteristics, our artisans are able to craft gemstones that transcend the boundaries of nature, rivaling the beauty of their natural counterparts.
Cutting Techniques
The journey from raw material to dazzling gemstone is one of precision, artistry, and innovation. While traditional cutting techniques such as the brilliant and step cuts have long been the foundation of gemstone craftsmanship, Shelby Gem Factory has embraced the latest advancements in cutting technology to push the boundaries of what’s possible.
Our modern innovations in cutting and polishing, combined with unparalleled attention to detail, enable us to maximize the intrinsic brilliance of each gemstone. From the intricate facet patterns that capture and refract light to the perfectly symmetrical proportions that enhance a gemstone’s visual appeal, our cutting-edge artistry is on full display in every creation that leaves our workshops.
