Our Story

Founded in 2019 by Carmen García-Carballido, an award winning Geologist & Gemmologist, ETHICAL GEMSTONES OF THE WORLD offers responsibly sourced gemstones from a selection of carefully chosen ethical gem suppliers from around the world.

All gemstones are natural and each gem is individually certified by Carmen, who is also a trained Jewellery Appraiser / Valuer.

We have a large selection of gemstone varieties in various sizes and cut designs (faceted & cabochons), as well as some rough crystals.

We love working with individual designers and we can customise and cut collections on request.
