Gemstones in Sargodha

Sargodha is the headquarters of a Punjab division that also takes in Khushab, Mianwali and Bhakkar. It is the heart of Pakistan's kinnow country and is often called the City of Eagles for its long link with the Pakistan Air Force. For many families across the division, a gemstone is a considered purchase: a ring for the head of the family, a stone advised before a big decision, or a gift at wedding time. GemStore delivers natural stones across Sargodha division by insured, tracked courier with Cash on Delivery.

Ratti or carat?

In smaller markets, stones are still often sold by the ratti and by eye. The trouble is that the ratti isn't a single fixed weight: different sellers convert it differently, so "five ratti" from one shop may not equal "five ratti" from another. The carat is fixed:

• 1 carat = 0.2 grams, everywhere in the world.
• A seller with an accurate scale can tell you the weight to two decimal places.
• Once you know the carats, the per-carat rate (price ÷ carats) lets you compare any two stones fairly.

Every GemStore listing gives the carat weight. If your astrologer has advised a weight in ratti, send it to us on WhatsApp and we can suggest stones of a suitable size in carats.

Stones Sargodha customers ask for

Astrological effects are beliefs and traditions, not guarantees. Our gemstones by rashi guide lists the traditional pairings, and the gemstone names page translates Urdu and Punjabi names such as lehsunia, pukhraj and zamurd. Please note that our returns apply to stones that are unused and in their original condition, so a trial-wearing in a ring would not normally qualify.

What to watch for when buying locally

• Look in daylight. Glass and synthetic stones often look too perfect under shop lights.
• Ask whether the stone is natural and treated, and get the answer in writing.
• Be wary of bargains. A large, clean neelam or yaqoot at a very low price is almost never natural.
• Insist on carats. No weight, no fair comparison.

The gemstone buying guide explains these checks in more detail.

What GemStore provides

Each listing in the shop is one individual natural stone, photographed as it is and priced on its own. We inspect every stone, disclose known treatments such as heating, and provide a certificate of authenticity on request. Independent lab testing can be arranged if you ask. Our authenticity page explains both.
