The Gemstone Lab

Our lab sapphire growth Kickstarter is officially open! Help support research in gemology, physics, chemistry, and lasers - and get precision-cut lab sapphire for yourself :)

Our international gemological research partnership has gemologists, chemists and physicists, gemcutters and jewellers, and partnerships with several universities. We've been studying unusual causes of colour in sapphire and getting other scientists to grow crystals for us - and now we're at the point where we can upgrade our own equipment and start growing them ourselves.

We'll have at least 12 different colours of exotic lab sapphire, lab ruby, and fancy lab sapphire. They'll be available in at least 3 (possibly 5) Kickstarter-exclusive precision gem cuts, optimized with the latest in CAD software. And you can get a range of sizes, from 5mm all the way up to 20mm!

The Gemstone Lab: growing exotic and novel lab sapphires Help our lab grow and study lab sapphires in brand new colours - and get brilliant lab sapphire gemstones in unique cuts for yourself!

Launching our Kickstarter on September 1! We're a partnership of gemcutters, gemologists, and research scientists worldwide, and will be upgrading the lab equipment at STEMZY so we can start growing our own sapphires with exotic colours and novel dopants. Get yourself some finished gemstones, ready for jewellery - or for our industry colleagues, rough material for your own needs.
