Toronto Jeweller Offers Buyer’s Guide On Finding Quality Sapphires Have you ever wondered what the difference between a heat-treated and a non-heat-treated sapphire is? Notice how some sapphires are just brighter and clearer than others? The new report from Skyjems.ca will explain! The newly released report from the company has been designed as a practical resource for individuals interested in the difference between the two types of sapphires, and their benefits when used in engagement jewellery. Sapphires have been considered a beautiful and highly coveted mineral for brides across history, and their popularity stays strong even today. Modern technology has allowed expert jewellers to further increase the beauty of the gems through innovative heating processes, drawing out deeper or brighter shades in the stones, depending on their quality. The article from Skyjems.ca discusses the various heat treatments that can be carried out on sapphires, explaining the procedures that mimic natural processes in a much shorter time. Heating the gems may be carried out with oxygen if you wish to lighten the stone, without oxygen for a darker colour, or to remove silk or asterism from a sapphire. The report goes on to discuss whether the heating treatments outlined weaken the gems in any way, discussing the durability of heated sapphires and the differences in the prices between treated and untreated stones. Skyjems.ca continue by explaining the importance of an honest gem dealer when you're purchasing sapphires and sapphire jewellery to ensure that the right information is provided to you with the sale. With the latest announcement, the company continues to invest in offering guaranteed sapphires of high quality to customers online and in the Toronto area. The report reads: "Skyjems.ca offers many certified sapphires and provides a 100% guarantee on our stock, and we provide Gemological Institute of America certificates for many of our high-end gems."
