These treatments take a very poor quality unsellable ruby and turn it into something beautiful, but which requires special care, may be less durable and for which a buyer should be paying a fraction of the prices of quality rubies that are heat treated using traditional methods. By the way, AfricaGems.com does not sell these types of fracture filled – leadglass composite rubies.
There are a variety of treatments for gemstones. And it seems as technology advances, there are new types of gemstone treatments introduced so a buyer must be able to get accurate information about the gemstones they are purchasing. That is why a buyer should purchase loose gemstones or gemstone jewelry from someone they can trust to disclose treatments! It's all about value and honesty.
