Management of Lab-grown Stones and Natural Stones (All Loose Stones) 09.17.2024
Ella Yoo Jewelry is committed to providing conflict-free loose stones. Here is how we manage our natural and lab-grown stones:
Expert Management of Gemstones
Founder Ella Yoo, a GIA Alumni, possesses professional knowledge of gemstones and thoroughly verifies the quality and origin of all loose stones.
Separate Handling Locations
We manage lab-grown and natural stones in different physical locations. At our office in the Los Angeles Jewelry District, we handle only natural stones and lab-grown diamonds with GIA or IGI certification of 1 carat or more. All colored lab-grown stones are managed in a completely separate location.
Certified Production Facility
All silver collections (excluding made-to-order silver items) are produced in a specialized jewelry factory located in China, with our headquarters in Hong Kong. This factory is RJC and COC certified, and we maintain close communication with the factory jewelry team to ensure quality control and produce high-quality jewelry. All products containing colored melee stones in the Poetic Mind Collection are manufactured here.
