Estimating the time for a gemstone replacement project is difficult, since there are many factors that influence the lead time.

Probably the biggest thing is selecting and sourcing the actual gemstone itself. From selecting your dream stone to getting it sourced and delivered, the time it takes for this part of the process can vary from a few weeks to even longer. 

The best way to get an accurate estimate of a timeline is to contact us for a complimentary consultation where we can get a better idea of the type of stone you want for your piece.

One thing most people should keep in mind when switching gemstones is the characteristics of the new stone. Some stones have certain characteristics that make them better suited for everyday pieces, and others, for special occasions.

A prime example of this is the delicateness of a stone. For a piece that you plan to wear everyday, like a ring, it would be wise to stay away from gemstones that are less durable and more delicate, like moonstone. 

Another example of a characteristic to consider is light reactivity, or how a particular gemstone reacts with light. Some gemstones, like amethyst, are known to fade with high intensity UV exposure (the sun). For stones like these, it would be best to place them on a piece that you plan to wear for special occasions, or on special nights out. 

In any case, the team at Studio Jewellers will be with you on every step of the way when selecting a replacement gemstone for your jewellery. From the characteristics of the stone to the price, we will help you choose the perfect stone for your situation.
