Frequently asked

About the Premium Report.

Questions that arise most often during ordering and scoping.

Q.01 What is included in the Premium Report?

The Premium Report is a four-page detailed report presented in a leather tri-fold folder. It includes species identification, weight and measurements, cut analysis, comprehensive colour description with grading commentary, treatment status with analytical detail, geographic origin determination as standard, high-resolution photography, microscopic inclusion documentation, and an online verification record.

Q.02 Who is the Premium Report designed for?

The Premium Report is designed for high-value coloured gemstones and significant jewellery pieces where the documentation should match the value of the specimen. It is suited to auction houses, high-end retailers, private collectors, and anyone requiring presentation-grade documentation with geographic origin determination included as standard.

Q.03 Does the Premium Report include origin determination?

Yes. Geographic origin determination by LA-ICP-MS trace element analysis is included as a standard component of every Premium Report. This is compared against the laboratory’s proprietary reference database covering 50+ deposits worldwide.

Q.04 Can I get a Premium Report for a matched pair of stones?

Yes. The standard fee of $1,200 USD covers a single stone or a matched pair. For three or more stones, matched suites, and multi-stone jewellery pieces, the laboratory provides an individual quotation based on scope and complexity.

Q.05 How is the Premium Report different from the 2-Fold Report?

The 2-Fold is a concise bi-fold paper report suited to standard trade and retail documentation. The Premium Report is a four-page report in a leather folder with detailed grading commentary, microscopic documentation, and origin determination included as standard. The analytical findings are the same across both formats.

Q.06 How is the Premium Report different from the Monograph?

The Premium Report provides comprehensive documentation of a stone in a leather folder. The Monograph is a custom-published hardback book of approximately 6,000 words that includes original research into the geological and historical context of the specimen. The Premium Report serves the retail and auction-grade segment; the Monograph serves the historic, museum, and ultra-collector segment.

Q.07 How long does a Premium Report take to produce?

Production timeline depends on analytical scope and current submission volume. The leather presentation folder is produced specifically for each commission. Contact the laboratory directly for turnaround estimates, particularly for auction-bound or time-sensitive submissions.
