Loose Gemstones in all Facets
Gemstones often carry far more than monetary value – they preserve history, craftsmanship, and generations of ownership. At Anthony’s, we specialize in the evaluation, restoration, and marketing of loose gemstones, including diamonds, emeralds, rubies, sapphires, aquamarines, tourmalines, opals, spinels, garnets, amethysts, citrines, peridots, and many other precious and semi-precious stones.
Many older gemstones possess unique characteristics that are rarely found in modern jewelry. Antique cuts such as Rose Cuts, Old Mine Cuts, Old European Cuts, and historic Cushion Cuts are increasingly sought after by collectors and connoisseurs worldwide. These gemstones often reflect the artistry and cutting traditions of their respective eras.
In many cases, gemstones can be carefully re-polished or re-cut to enhance their brilliance, symmetry, and overall appearance while preserving their individual character. Depending on the stone and its historical significance, maintaining the original antique cut may also be the most desirable option. Our experts provide professional guidance on whether a gemstone should remain in its original form, be re-cut for modern use, or be offered to the market as a rare historical specimen.
Whether inherited through an estate, discovered in a collection, or removed from an antique piece of jewelry, every gemstone deserves a thorough assessment. We evaluate quality, condition, cut, rarity, and current market demand to determine its potential value and best path forward.
Through our expertise in antique jewelry, gemstones, and international auctions, we help clients uncover hidden value and give exceptional gemstones a new opportunity to shine.
