Natural Gemstones in Gujrat

Natural gemstones for Gujrat and its neighbouring towns, sent from Lahore by insured courier with Cash on Delivery.

Gujrat lies between the Jhelum and Chenab rivers, on the Grand Trunk Road between Lahore and Rawalpindi. It is a busy manufacturing town, known across Pakistan for electric fans, furniture and pottery, and it has strong family networks in which weddings are big occasions and gifts of gold and stones carry weight. The shrine of Shah Daula in the city is an old landmark. GemStore is an online store based in Lahore. We do not have a shop in Gujrat; we deliver natural stones to the city and nearby towns by insured courier, and you inspect before paying.

Stones Gujrat buyers choose, and why

Requests from Gujrat lean towards wedding gifts and astrological stones:

• Pukhraj: traditionally the stone of Jupiter, often chosen around marriage. Many families gift a pukhraj ring to a groom.
• Neelam: the Saturn stone in Vedic astrology, usually worn after an astrologer's advice and a trial period.
• Yaqoot and zamurd: the classic red and green stones of wedding jewellery.
• Opal and amethyst: popular for bridal gifts and modern rings at a gentler budget.
• Aqeeq: the everyday silver ring stone for many men.

The beliefs around these stones are traditions; we cannot promise results. For gift ideas, see gemstones for nikah and wedding gifts.

Checking a stone in Gujrat

Gujrat's jewellers are used to wedding buyers, and stones are often sold set in gold, where they are harder to examine. Some practical habits:

1. See the stone loose if you can. A setting can hide chips, a thin back or a foil lining.
2. Ask about treatment. Heated pukhraj and neelam are common and fine when disclosed. Glass-filled ruby sold as natural is a real problem in the market; read how to identify original ruby.
3. Know which ratti is used. The gemstone ratti is 0.91 carat; the sunari ratti used by goldsmiths is about 0.61 carat. A stone quoted per sunari ratti can look cheaper than it is. Our carat to ratti converter sorts this out.
4. Check colour in daylight. Pukhraj and citrine can look alike under shop lights; our yellow sapphire vs citrine guide explains the difference.

Delivery to Gujrat and nearby towns

We dispatch from Lahore within 1 to 2 working days, and the insured, tracked courier delivers within about 7 working days.

Cash on Delivery: open the parcel first

With Cash on Delivery you pay nothing until the stone is in your hands. Open the parcel in front of the rider, compare the stone with its listing photographs, and pay only if it is right. Each GemStore listing is one stone, photographed as it is and priced on its own. For a wedding order with a deadline, message us on WhatsApp before ordering so we can confirm timing. Budget filters can help you shortlist, for example stones over 50,000 rupees for a major gift.

Certificates, setting and returns

Every stone is natural, with known treatments disclosed. A certificate is available on request, and independent lab testing can be arranged; see our authenticity page. If you want the stone set, read about our stone setting service or take it to your family jeweller. Unused stones can be returned within 7 days of delivery under the return policy.

Planning a stone for a bridal set

If you are matching stones for a bridal set, measure the empty settings in millimetres and send a photo to us on WhatsApp. Colour matching works best in daylight, so we photograph candidate stones side by side under natural light. Allow time for setting after delivery, because most Gujrat jewellers need several days to finish a piece in a busy wedding season.
