Chasseurs de Gemmes: Field Tools for Hunting Raw Wonder
A gemmology operation selling field-diagnostic kits alongside a curated catalog of allegedly natural, untreated stones with mine-to-market provenance claims.
Field notes
The storefront divides its offer between diagnostic equipment and geological specimens. Its listed tools range from pocket loupes and Chelsea filters to a 1.30–1.81 refractometer, polariscope, spectroscope, and hydrostatic weighing setup. Specimen entries attach measurements and locality details to stones such as a 3.42-carat Ratnapura padparadscha. The page attributes its sourcing to artisanal pits in several countries and states that the stones are responsibly mined and untreated, though those claims are not independently substantiated in the extract.
