Hello, I’m Eric Emms and I am a gemmologist.
Someone who specialises in diamonds, coloured gemstones and pearls.
I’m obsessed with the beauty, rarity and truth in gems.
Maybe you are too?
Why you are here
You wish to know more about gems, gemstones, precious stones, call them what you want. You want to know what makes them special, beautiful, rare, a joy to behold and treasure for ever.
On this site we shall be discussing gems. I’ll be posting blogs about their beauty, their quality, their origin, their nature and any other subjects you think would be of interest.
I’m a professional gemmologist not a jeweller. I don’t have a retail jewellery shop although you can buy loose vintage coloured gems, GIA graded diamonds and a small selection of jewels on my ‘shop’ page or book an appointment to view in Hatton Garden.
I am a Fellow (by examination) of the Gemmological Association of Great Britain (FGA DGA), and a member of The London Diamond Bourse in Hatton Garden and a member of The National Association of Jewellers.
To appreciate gems slow down. Breathe deeply. Take your time and linger here. Explore, learn and ask questions.
See what is on offer on my website. Get in touch when you want further guidance or information. Email me, message me through Facebook, LinkedIn or Instagram or ask me to set up a Zoom meeting so we can chat.
Enjoy your gem journey. Precious stones are truly Nature’s gifts. Live life well.
