Spinel inventory software for dealers
Spinels are spinel stones sourced mainly from Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Tanzania and Vietnam. Spinel is untreated more often than most coloured stones, which is a selling point only if you can show it. Origin and the absence of treatment need to be recorded and backed by a lab report.
What to record for each spinel
Typical fields: colour, origin, carat weight, treatment and lab report number. GemColony keeps these on the stone record with photos and a barcode or QR label.
Parcels, lots and memos
Buy spinels as a lot, split it into parcels and single stones, and send stones out on memo while seeing who holds them and for how long.
