Trillion Shaped
Gemstones
Trillion shaped gems are unique because
not many jewelry producers actually include these gems in their
jewels. Trillion gems can be simple faceted or can include a cushion
bulging top, using the multifaceted checkerboard cut you can add
glitter and flash to the gemstone. While rings with this gem stone
shape are not very common, it is possible to find exquisite pendants
set with trillion shaped gems. It is not just transparent gems that
are cut in trillion shape. Carnelian, bloodstone and even black onyx
are also cut in this shape.
When setting trillion shaped stones, the
pointed corners of the gemstone need to be given sufficient
protection. These corners could break when hit with a hard
object or when they strike against hard surfaces. While this should
be taken care of by your jeweler, it helps to be aware of this
important issue. A good design for jewels using trillion shaped
stones is for the corners to be set in sturdy 'V' prongs. You could
also create a trillion pendant where one of the edges is entirely
bordered with gold or silver. The opposite corner can then be
covered with a 'V' prong. These ideas are known to all jewelers, but
the high prices of gold often encourage jewelers to ignore these
important issues. This ofcourse becomes the problem of the buyer
since longterm durability is compromised.
When cutting cabachon trillion stones in
lapis, black onyx, bloodstone, agate, carnelian, malachite or such
gems there is one thing you need to keep in mind. Many gem cutters
cut such gems quite high, this because the prices of such gems are
not too high. The high profile of trillion cabachon gems might be
fine for pendants but, rings should ideally not have the gem
bulging too much. The gem is obviously more likely to hit
against hard surfaces if it protrudes well out of the mounting.
When creating rings or pendants from
trillion cut gems, the bottom side of the gemstone
because an issue that needs consideration. When transparent stones
are cut to trillion faceted shape, the bottom of the gem can be
quite sharp and pointed. The pendant or ring that uses such trillion
shaped gemstones should ensure that, the bottom does not
scratch delicate skin. This often poses a problem
when mass production of jewelry is done, slight variations in
individual gemstones cannot be taken care of. We have come across
gorgeous trillion gems that were ruined by being set in mountings
with insufficient height.
Beliefs in the powers of gems
often brings in jewelry requirements where, the gemstone
needs to touch the skin from the underside of the
jewel. When this involves trillion cut gemstones there are two
possibilities. For cabachon cut trillion gems, the base is normally
flat. If you can get a custom cut gemstone, request for a rounded
base. The gold or silver mounting will then need to work with
gemstone dimensions and create the jewel. If you cannot request for
a custom cut stone, discuss the possibility of mounting two gems
back to back with your jeweler. The bottom of the stone would be
flat and when mounted back to back, will allow the bottom stone to
touch the skin without bruising or scratching the skin. Faceted
trillion gems need some planning and skill when being set to allow
the bottom of the stone to touch the skin. The pointed base of the
gem should not be too sharp and the setting should not allow too
much pressure to be put on the skin.
At Kaisilver every gem stone is
handpicked and closely inspected before being cut by very skilled
craftsmen. We do not produce tonnes of gems, only the best stones
for the price paid are handpicked and offered to our buyers. You can
order just the gemstone or request for a complete custom jewel to be

efficient networks with global gem mining operations, we are assured

Who Is
Kaisilver?
Having established itself as the world's
leading online custom jewelry provider, Kaisilver now extends it's
merchandise line to include gems. While there is no shortage of gem
stones in the global market, reliable sources for the retail buyer
requirements are not many. Most retail gem dealers work with limited
inventories, this reduces buyer options. Another problem with these
small dealers is the lack of information and reliability when it
comes to gem authenticity and value for money. Kaisilver with it's
wide network of gemstone mining and manufacturing resources, is the
best source for gems of all types, shapes, sizes and cuts. With a
support team that is compromised of jewelry and gemstone experts,
the advice and suggestions made by the team relate to your
requirements and not to fixed sales targets. The website shows a
small sampling of the gems that we offer. You can infact request for
just about any gem on the globe. All gems are sourced directly from
the source, closely inspected and then custom cut by our expert
cutters. With a buyer base that includes fashion models, government
officials, casino and resort owners, lawyers, financial experts,
students and professors, doctors and surgeons, sportsmen and
newsreaders we have become the preferred choice for quality gems and
jewelry. By cutting out middlemen commissions and multiple agents,
we provide great value for your money. Our large online operation
does not stop us from welcoming even the smallest order. Gold and
silver jewelry is custom made with equal attention to quality,
material and craftsmanship. You can choose from our designs or send
us detailed for the style and design that you need.
How To
Order?
The process to order gems and custom
jewelry at Kaisilver is similar. We do not expect you to make a rush
purchase. We do wish that you take the time to discuss your
requirements with our experts. They will be in a position to
provide constructive suggestions that will guide you to make well
informed buying decisions. Email all your requirements to sales@kaisilver.com provide as
much inputs as possible to help us make relevant suggestions. For
example if you are keen on getting a green gemstone but, are not
particular about it being an emerald mention this in your email. Our
gem experts might suggest a green tourmaline or even a peridot
instead of an emerald. This suggestion would reduce our profit
margins but will give you a gem that, is much cheaper and even more
durable as compared to an emerald. When it comes to
payments we offer some very suitable
options. Paypal is the preferred form of payment,
it is fair to the buyer and seller. The buyer when using paypal
never needs to reveal credit card of bank information to the seller.
We also accept direct bank transfers but prefer to
do this on a case by case basis. When it comes to online
transactions these days, both buyer and seller are afraid of
frauds. It is quite possible that you do not feel comfortable
working with us at Kaisilver. We sometimes feel a little
uncomfortable with certain transactions too and prefer to keep away
from them. There have always been fears of processing payments
through Western Union money transfers. With the latest fraud
reports, fake sellers and even fake buyers have been pulling off
many online frauds using this mode of payment. At the same time we
do understand that armed forces from the U.S who are stationed in
various global positions sometimes have no other mode of payment
besides Western Union. We therefore accept this mode of payment but
at the same time, request you to avoid this mode if you do not feel
comfortable using it. Shipping is done through
FEDEX and you can expect a production lead time of around 4 to 5
weeks from the date of order confirmation and receipt of payment.
Every jewel is fully custom made and requires the complete attention
and concentration of highly skilled craftsmen. When it comes to
gems, we could provide faster lead times and this can be discussed
for each specific order.
