The Process
our process
At the heart of our operations is a commitment to ethical sourcing. All our sapphires are sourced directly from the mines in Sri Lanka, ensuring authenticity, transparency, and the highest quality. Whether you are looking for a stunning sapphire or a unique gem for a custom design, we provide unparalleled expertise and passion for the craft.
Sourcing from Ethical Miners
Melbn Gems sources rough gemstones from miners who are both ethical and licensed by the government. The company has established strong relationships and partnerships with ethical miners in Sri Lanka by keeping its high ethical standards and procedures. These partnerships reflect Melbn Gems' commitment to responsible sourcing and the promotion of sustainable mining practices.
Preform
Once a rough gem is bought, it goes through a preform process that is closely monitored by Melbn Gems. This involves a series of steps to preform the stone, shaping it and removing any inclusions. The preform process is essential for preparing the gem, shaping and orienting the stone perfectly before it moves on to faceting.
