Acquiring a Ceylon Blue Sapphire or a rare Padparadscha is a significant financial commitment. In an industry where synthetic treatments and origin disputes can impact value by thousands of dollars, our warranty acts as your ultimate safeguard.
Here is the technical breakdown of the Premium Gems Lanka Guarantee and how we protect your investment from the moment of discovery to the point of global resale.
1. The Lifetime Authenticity Guarantee
We provide a Lifetime Guarantee that every gemstone sold as “Natural” is 100% earth-mined and free from synthetic creation.
The Scope: If any reputable international laboratory (GIA, GRS, or SSEF) ever determines that a stone purchased from us as natural is actually synthetic or lab-grown, we offer a 100% immediate refund of the purchase price.
Treatment Transparency: Our warranty strictly covers the disclosure of treatments. If a stone is sold as “Unheated,” we guarantee its untreated status for the life of the asset.
2. Multi-Tier Certification Warranty
We do not ask you to “take our word for it.” Every investment-grade stone is backed by a dual-layer certification process:
The NGJA Baseline: Every export is cleared by the National Gem and Jewellery Authority (NGJA) of Sri Lanka. This government-backed audit ensures the stone meets national export standards for quality and value.
The International Standard: For stones over a certain value threshold, our warranty includes a GIA or GRS report. We guarantee that the physical stone matches the digital record stored in these laboratories’ global databases.
3. The 14-Day “Happiness & Audit” Window
We understand that for our international clients, “seeing is believing.” Our warranty includes a 14-day inspection period.
- Third-Party Verification: We encourage you to take your acquisition to a local independent gemologist or appraiser during this window.
- No-Questions-Return: If the stone does not meet your expectations for color, brilliance, or “life” upon physical inspection, you may return it in its original condition for a full refund (minus shipping/insurance).
4. Ethical Sourcing & Conflict-Free Guarantee
In 2025, an asset’s “Pedigree” includes its ethical footprint. Our warranty guarantees that your gemstone has been sourced through Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM) practices that:
- Support Local Communities: Profits are shared with the miners in Ratnapura and Beruwala.
- Protect the Environment: Mining sites are rehabilitated according to Sri Lankan environmental law.
- Are Conflict-Free: Every stone is traceable and compliant with international trade regulations.
5. What the Warranty Does Not Cover
To maintain the integrity of our guarantee, certain exclusions apply:
- Unauthorized Alterations: If you have the stone recut or unset by a third-party jeweler without our prior authorization, the authenticity warranty regarding the stone’s physical state (weight/dimensions) is voided.
- Physical Damage: Our warranty covers authenticity, not accidental damage. We recommend specialized jewelry insurance (like Jewelers Mutual) for protection against chips, cracks, or loss.
Investing with Absolute Certainty
The Premium Gems Lanka Warranty is designed to eliminate the “trust gap” in international gem trading. By combining government oversight with the world’s leading gemological science, we ensure that your Ceylon sapphire remains a secure, verifiable, and beautiful store of wealth.
