A new Karachi gemstone business, one stone at a time
About Authentic Gems
Authentic Gems is a new gemstone business in Karachi, selling natural loose stones online and delivering them across Pakistan. We started it with a simple idea: buying a gemstone should not depend on guesswork or on trusting a showcase light. So every stone gets its own listing, its own photos and its own price, and you see it in your hand before you pay.

Why One Stone per Listing
Each product page on our shop is a single stone, photographed as it is, with its exact carat weight and its own price. If you like the colour and the inclusions you see, that is the stone that comes to you. Two neelam of the same weight can differ a great deal, and we would rather you choose between real stones than between promises.
What We Sell
Natural loose gemstones, from the precious stones such as yaqoot (ruby), neelam (blue sapphire) and zamurd (emerald) to stones people ask for every day, like pukhraj (yellow sapphire), feroza (turquoise) and aqeeq (agate). People buy from us for ring stones, gifts, small collections and stones an astrologer has suggested. If you only know a stone by its Urdu name, our Urdu-English gemstone names list will help you find it.
How We Check Every Stone
Before anything is listed, we go over it ourselves here in Karachi: colour, clarity, cut and finish, and weight. Glass, lab-grown stones and anything that is not what it was offered as does not go on the site. When we know a stone has been treated, such as a heated ruby or sapphire or an oiled emerald, the listing says so. You can ask for a certificate of authenticity with any stone, and independent lab testing can be arranged on request. Our authenticity page explains all of this in detail.
How Buying Works
- Choose a stone on the website, or send us a WhatsApp message with what you are looking for.
- We confirm the order by phone or WhatsApp and dispatch it from Karachi within 1 working day.
- It travels by insured, tracked courier for a flat Rs. 500 per order. Karachi usually gets it in 1 to 2 working days, other major cities in 2 to 4.
- You inspect, then pay. Open the parcel in front of the rider, check the stone, and pay in cash only if you are happy.
If it still isn't right, you have 7 days from delivery to return it for a refund or an exchange. The details are in our shipping and returns policies. Karachi customers can read more on our gemstones in Karachi page, and each major city has its own page too, such as gemstones in Lahore.
