I’m so pleased with my purchase. The website is easy to use and full of treasures. Postage and delivery was super quick and the item itself was wrapped up safely and securely. Communication with the seller was also great. Very friendly, knowledgeable and informative. I will be purchasing again! Thank you so much!
Interesting large watermelon Tourmaline, worthy of beautiful setting.
Well cut with exceptional colourplay and good size.
As a collector of garnets this is top gem.
Very quick delivery, packaged very well and packed with care. A very nice man too, friendly. I've ordered from him a number of times now over the last year or so and am normally always happy with the pieces. If I ever want to return the odd thing that's not a problem for Mark and he quickly refunds you for that item. An all round good experience with MF, thank you
Thank you for nice specimen!

The rocks came thoroughly packaged and as perfect as displayed in the pictures! I would definitly recommend ordering from this company and it has been nothing but a possitive experience doing business with them!
Very open and positive transaction with full disclosure and provenance. I have bought many agemstones from Joshua and Mark for some years now and am delighted with my purchases. There is always the option of return if not up to expectation and the identification is precise and well documented for size, hardness and location. I do not hesitate in recommending their range of gemstones and generously shared experience and knowledge.
