What Affects the Value of a Gemstone Ring?
The value of a coloured gemstone ring is influenced by several key factors:
- Type of gemstone
- Colour and saturation
- Clarity and cut
- Origin (where known)
- Size and overall appearance
- Setting and craftsmanship
Unlike diamond rings, where standardised grading is common, coloured gemstones are often valued more holistically, with visual appeal playing a significant role.
