Analysis & Identification of Gemstones
Mcnelly Reliquary is committed to working with natural gemstones, emphasizing their natural beauty.
​
The focus is unheated, untreated gemstones, "Natural" treatments (heating, cedar oil) are disclosed in the listing title and comments.​
​
As McNelly grows, so does the capability and precision of gemstone analysis.
As of now, all stones (whether rough. or faceted) are sourced through trusted, veteran suppliers. If a stone's story is not known from the ground to polish, it has had oversight of a GIA certified gemologist, to ensure each stone which comes into McNelly Reliquary is as accurate as possible. Stones are cross referenced once they arrive, as well personally analyzed by myself to ensure confidence in the lack of enhancement.
​
​
Gemstone identification is a multi faceted process, relying on

Collaborated Gemologist & Professional Opinion
With these processes in place, as well as access to laboratories if needed, allows for a confident, transparent, accessible space to exist within the fine jewelry space.
