Over twenty-five years of grading experience.
Established in 2001, Jackson’s Gems was started to solve a problem… lack of access to high quality facet rough at an affordable price. Back then the internet was still new and it was hard to find quality material. Your only option was to travel to the source and buy in bulk, or overpay at a gem show.
I pride myself on offering the highest quality facet rough from around the world at mine direct prices. I started this business after discovering a need for quality facet rough. As a beginning cutter, I was highly disappointed with the junk most sellers on Ebay sold as facet grade rough. I look at facet rough like this: If it's something I would not take the time to cut, then I will not sell it (and I'm very picky!)
