Star Sapphire inventory software for dealers
Star sapphires are corundum stones sourced mainly from Sri Lanka, India and Myanmar. Star stones are bought on how sharp the star is, how well centred it is and the body colour under different lighting. Photos and short videos matter more here than for faceted stones, so each record needs media attached.
What to record for each star sapphire
Typical fields: star sharpness, body colour, cabochon dimensions, treatment and carat weight. GemColony keeps these on the stone record with photos and a barcode or QR label.
Parcels, lots and memos
Buy star sapphires 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.
