If you need information or details on any of these stones, or if you are curious about how we work here in Thailand and why we have been successful, please find me- holler at me via the messaging system here, or send a message through our site at paragonuniversaltrade.com. Nothing that we do is particularly earth-shattering in and of itself, but we've managed to stay busy over the years by short-circuiting the typically long and disjointed gem and jewelry supply chain. My wife Melanie and I sell directly to many jewelers in the United States and Europe, and our pricing allows them to make money, surely our individual clients also find a lot of value in our custom jewelry and colored gemstones and diamonds.
We mostly sell ruby, sapphire, emerald, and accent-sized diamonds. We also do some unusual collectible stones like the confetti sunstone above, and we dabble in opal too when we find particularly rare and interesting patterns. Other stones like the tsavorite garnet above are hit-or-miss; we often don't see a reasonably priced tsavorite for months at a time. But when we do see great stones we've learned to jump on them, so we try to keep quality and varied inventory in stock, but we also work with other dealers here in the colored gemstone trading center of the world, so if I don't have exactly what you want chances are one of the dealers in my network can source you stone quickly and at a far lower cost than you would pay for a comparable stone in the West.
Of course labor costs are lower here, so I can do a CAD drawing more economically than you can get it done in your home market if you live in a developed Western country. And when it comes to casting and finishing heirloom-quality jewelry, we've developed a series of strategic partners that make the process as refined as it is efficient. We also have talented wax artists to create unique designs that are better suited to that medium than CAD, and our hand-made wax models are an incredible value if you are thinking about making a custom ring, pendant, or some other cast and finished jewelry piece.
Get in touch!
Thanks,
Dave

I have one more untreated Ethiopian opal; it's also a very special gem and also it's quite large at 16.69 carats; the dimensions are 22.14 x 17.30 x 10.18mm deep. This stone would make a marvelous pendant!

This is also from Welo in Amhara Province but is a cabochon cut and not a faceted stone like the emerald shape above. Welo is known the world over for opal of extraordinary quality and we were fortunate to find this one. I am offering this at $50 per carat.

From Tanzania, this "confetti" sunstone has intricately beautiful inclusions, including hexagonal hematite platelets.
This stone weighs 1.69 carats x $14.35 per carat = $24.25 plus $12 shipping and handling. I combine shipping if you buy more than one stone.
My wife Melanie and I have been manufacturing jewelry and buying gemstones in Thailand for the last 8 1/2 years together, and I've been actively buying in Thailand for 13 years. Our office is in the Silom district of the Bangkok gemstone district. We are in Warner Building at the intersection of Silom and Mahaesak, just across the street from the Jewelry Trade Center.
I am a GIA Graduate Gemologist and can probably answer most basic questions that you have about gemstones or jewelry. Please post a question if you have one!

I have a specimen of Afghan ruby in situ, or still in the host marble in which it formed. This is a marvelous collector's piece.
I am asking 1/2 bitcoin, or I will accept a reasonable offer. Shipping is $20 as this is a lot heavier than most gemstones that I sell!!!! Please ask if you have a question.

If you click on the images above you will see larger images. It's worth it, I assure you.
Independent laboratory reports are available for any of these stones...just ask. You can choose the lab; I don't have to. If you want my guidance in getting good value for your money you can ask, but if you already know the labs here and which one you prefer, just let me know that as well.

This is a natural stone mined from the earth. Some people confuse "cubic zirconia" with "zircon". CZ is a very common diamond simulant and is extremely inexpensive. By contrast, zircon is a natural stone and this one came out of the ground in northeastern Cambodia, in the province of Ratanakiri. This area is noted for fine zircon color, but such a vivid blue color as this is exceptionally rare.
$255 per carat.
