Services
The client selects the rough stone and together we define the expected design. Estonian Gem Factory then creates a design for the stone in CAD.
The stone grinding begins. If you wish, the customer can also put their own hand on the stone, which adds even more specialness and sentimentality!
Once the stone is finished, the customer will let us know exactly what the stone should be like. The jeweller will draw a 3D design of the jewellery, which will be coordinated with the client. Married 3D printed and cast.
Grinding of high-grade stone
The cost of polishing depends on the complexity of the stone design. In most cases, the price of the work ranges between 300€ and 390€, plus the price of the stone. The price of a raw stone depends on the material. To give you an example of life itself: the price of a light blue Sky Blue Topaz 5ct rough stone is 50€, the price of a natural colour-changing Kenyan Sapphire 5ct rough stone is 150-250€, depending on the colour.
Designing a unique stone
We can design into the stone a symbol associated with the stone’s owner and create a very special and unique design for the stone. Price 30€/h. Depending on the complexity of the design, the creation of a unique stone design takes 2-10h.
Restoration of precious and semi-precious stones
Price 30€/h. The price includes drawing the stone to be restored on a computer and grinding or polishing the stone. In general, the restoration time is between 3-12h, depending on the size and complexity of the stone.
You can also get gemstone training with us!
Tour the world of gemstones
A couple of hours in our studio, where you are welcome to come with your family or work colleagues.
Let’s take a look at the world of gemstones. The master will give a brief demonstration of how gemstones are designed and what the cutting process looks like. You can also see the Estonian Gem Factory collection and what unpolished gemstones look like.
An engaging quiz on precious stones can also be arranged for participants.
The price for a workshop for up to 10 people is 30€/person. Price for larger groups by arrangement.
After this tour, you’ll look at gemstones with a whole new perspective!
Girls’ evening workshop
In addition to talking about and demonstrating stone cutting, all participants will be able to try their hand and help the bride-to-be cut a natural cabochon-style (or curved) Welo Opal.
Grinding the stone takes about 1,5-2h. I supervise and coordinate the grinding. At the same time, we will talk about different stones and have a chance to see the gemstone collection of the Estonian Gem Factory.
The price for the Girls’ Night workshop is 30€ per person. For longer events the price is subject to agreement.

"Sander is a very good trainer and an ideal communicator. He is in the right field and knows what he is doing. You can see straight away that what he does is not a tedious job, he enjoys what he does."
"It was interesting and fun. Time did not drag. Rather, it went too fast. It was nice to be able to try the grinding myself."
The whole event was very well organised. The explanations were fascinating. At every moment we were able to ask questions and get answers. Prosecco , cheeses and coffee were a nice bonus.
