Seller's Story
Based in Bangkok, Thailand, I specialize in natural colored gemstones with a strong focus on rare and collectible pieces sourced from some of the world’s most renowned gem-producing regions, including Burma (Myanmar), Afghanistan, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, and Mozambique.
As a gemstone dealer and founder of Jime Gems, I work closely with trusted miners, cutters, and international suppliers to bring carefully selected gemstones to collectors, investors, jewelers, and gem enthusiasts worldwide. My expertise primarily includes spinel, ruby, sapphire, tourmaline, aquamarine, emerald, and other fine collector gemstones.
What makes my journey unique is that I am one of the very few women from Pakistan working internationally in the gemstone trade, a traditionally male-dominated industry. My passion lies not only in sourcing beautiful gemstones, but also in educating buyers about rarity, origin, color quality, and the individuality of natural gems.
I believe every gemstone has its own story, character, and identity. Through my auctions and collections, I aim to offer authentic natural gemstones with transparency, professionalism, and a deep appreciation for the beauty of nature.
