GEMSTONE EDUCATION
A gemstone is a natural stone that is valued for its beauty and color. It is usually cut and polished to be used in jewellery like rings, necklaces, and bracelets.
Gemstones come in many different colors and types, and each one looks unique. People often choose them based on what they like, or sometimes for their meaning or birth month.
WHAT ARE BIRTHSTONES?
Every gemstone belongs to a larger family — shaped over time, defined by color, and chosen for what it represents.Birthstones bring a sense of connection to these natural gems — linking them to moments, months, and meaning. At Kesav Diamond, we see them as a way to make jewellery feel more personal, more intentional, and truly yours.
GEMSTONE COLOR
HUE
Hue is the basic color of the gemstone — like blue, red, or green. It tells you what color you’re actually seeing.
TONE
Tone refers to how light or dark the gemstone appears. Some stones are very light in color, while others are deeper and darker.
SATURATION
Saturation shows how strong or vivid the color is. A highly saturated gemstone looks bright and rich, while low saturation makes it look dull or faded.
GEMSTONE CUT:
Cut is how the gemstone is shaped and polished. A good cut helps the stone reflect light better, making it look brighter and more attractive, enhancing its natural sparkle.
PRECIOUS GEMSTONES:
Precious gemstones are rare, valuable stones admired for their beauty, strength, and lasting appeal. This group mainly includes diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and emeralds. Known for their rich colors and natural brilliance, these gemstones are often used in fine jewellery, making every piece feel special, timeless, and elegant.
