Before You Begin

Here's what you'll need to get started

GemMetric™ is a precision color-grading instrument. A quick prep now means a trustworthy grade later.

What it is

An objective, calibrated color-grading instrument that measures a gemstone's body color in CIE L*a*b* and matches it against peer-reviewed academic centroids — no subjective swatch comparison.

What it isn't

A replacement for a full gemological lab report. A lab certificate covers identity, origin, treatment, and more. GemMetric™ gives you an objective, calibrated color grade — one part of that picture, faster and at a fraction of the cost.

You'll need three things

A calibration card

You'll be able to download and print one after signing in. It's the physical reference that makes every grade trustworthy.

Daylight-balanced lighting

A daylight LED lamp (5000–6500K) or indirect window light gives the best results.

A stone to grade

Any loose or set gemstone — the engine measures its body color against the calibrated reference.
