Am becoming more interested in colored gems - dangerous new hobby I think!
Am not very knowledgeable about the endless variety of stones, just know what colors and cuts are appealing to me. Is there a site/place to go to find out if a certain gem I like will make a good piece of jewelry - in terms of hardness/ability to stand up being worn as a ring, etc?
There are a ton of gems I''ve seen that I think will make beautiful rings, but not sure if they chip/scratch/crack easy and aren''t recommended...does that question make sense?
Thanks!
