Gemology: A Practical Guide

A crash course on gemstones and how they are studied, identified and valued in the world of jewelry. This workshop will leave students with a general knowledge of gemstones - both colored stones and diamonds and how they can apply this knowledge when purchasing stones or designing new pieces of jewelry.

The class will delve into the allure of gemstones as well as their history and origin - how they are mined, cut and valued in comparison to other gemstones and their synthetic counterparts. Students will develop the basic skills to confidently purchase gemstones and understand the differences in diamonds and colored gemstones that may appear to have the same value.
