Cut to Order Info

 

At RURI, we invite you to embark on a rare and personal journey—one that begins with nature’s raw treasures and ends with a radiant gem that is uniquely yours. This is Cut-To-Order, where you don’t just wear a gemstone—you become a part of its story.

What Is Cut-To-Order?

Cut-To-Order is RURI’s bespoke gemstone crafting experience. It allows you to:

    • Select a natural rough stone shaped by geological time and earthly forces.

    • Collaborate with experts to decide how your chosen stone will be cut and polished.

    • Witness your gem’s transformation into a finished piece that is truly one-of-a-kind.

We offer this immersive experience to those who seek individuality, storytelling, and ethical sourcing in the jewelry they wear.

Why Choose a Rough Gemstone?

Each rough gemstone is an untouched relic of nature—unstandardized, asymmetrical, yet full of potential. These stones are:

    • Born from hundreds of millions of years of Earth’s history.

    • Uniquely shaped and colored—no two are the same.

    • Sometimes opaque or rounded, but with captivating charm.

Unlike the uniform cuts you’ll find in mass-market jewelry, a gem cut from rough is a reflection of your aesthetic, values, and intuition.

The Process: Beauty with Integrity

RURI’s Cut-To-Order process blends artistry, technology, and sustainability:

    • Expert Consultation: Our gem specialists work with you to choose the right rough stone, often connecting you directly to Sri Lankan cutters via video consultation.

    • Tailored Cutting: Designs are crafted to bring out the best of each stone, respecting its natural shape, hue, and internal structure.

    • Ethical Assurance: We source stones from trusted suppliers in Sri Lanka, and cutting is done locally to comply with export laws.

    • Traceable & Transparent: Using blockchain and traceability tech (in partnership with Tracified), we ensure every gem’s journey is documented and disclosed.

Adventure Meets Assurance

While the process is exciting, working with rough stones does carry some unpredictability:

    • Internal cracks or inclusions may only be revealed after cutting.

    • Color or quality might differ from initial expectations.

    • Certification is only possible post-cutting.

To ensure peace of mind, RURI offers three product types with varying levels of risk and a money-back guarantee under certain conditions.

① Precious Rough Gemstones: Sapphire, Ruby and more
