Meet the Gem Hunters

For two generations, Artinian Gems has been known for searching out fine gemstone materials all over the world. We strive to be experts in sourcing the most beautiful gems. That means you can feel confident in our quality, fair pricing and expertise.
Our Vision Statement is to place:

An Artinian Gem In Every Fine Jewelry Collection

What We Believe

We believe that gemstones are God’s rare and amazing creations. They, by their very nature, are intrinsically beautiful.

We believe that each and every gemstone should be carefully and skillfully, cut and fashioned, to bring out its greatest internal beauty.

We believe that the process of ‘mine’ to ‘you’, should be marked by the same beauty and should reflect a flow that adds value to each person who touches it.

We believe that the gemstone miners, the cutters, the jewelry artisans along with you and your clients, should share the benefits of added value, opportunity and fair-trade.

We strive to accomplish the above in all we do. That’s why we are different and that’s why we invite you to “Experience the Difference” at Artinian Gems.

From Mines to Market

Whether in the mountains of central Sri Lanka, deep in the mines of Tanzania or at our gemstone cutting facility in Chanthaburi Thailand, Artinian Gems has always sought to bring the greatest value to market. As the Ethiopian, Wello Opals were being discovered, Artinian Gems was there in action, sourcing out the finest. Examples of our opal collection can be seen on the cover of the Winter 2011 Edition of Gems and Gemology, GIA’s quarterly periodical.
In addition to our broad experience as International Gem Hunters, our team also includes, certified Gemologists and world class gemstone artists. Our highly experienced gemstone faceting team is encouraged to think outside of the box and to create their own faceting styles. Whether it is a fine Sapphire, a rare Sphene or a sparkling Blue Zircon, you will love what they create for you, and you can purchase with confidence, knowing that each gem is faceted to the highest standards.
You can rest assured, that whether it is a $20.00 Citrine or a $50,000.00 fine Sapphire, your ‘Artinian Gem’, will be worthy of your finest design and setting.
As the world moves more and more towards environmental and social consciousness, buyers are now more than ever concerned about, conservation and fair-trade. Artinian Gems vision in this area starts with our gemstone cutting staff in Thailand. Each team member is trained and mentored in all aspects of gemstone cutting, as well as in broader, life skills. They are provided with a training materials that involve development of the whole person. They have educational opportunities for themselves as well as their families.
Artinian Gems’ has always emphasized, environmental sustainability and ‘Fair-Trade’ gems. That is why we have created a close network of trusted, local artisanal miners and gemstone exporters who help us stay close to the source. Many of them have become family friends.
