Store Policies

These terms and conditions apply to the Far East Gems & Jewellery Web site located at www.fareastgemsjewellery.com and our e-shop at, and all associated Web sites linked to www.fareastgemsjewellery.com by Far East Gems & Jewellery, its subsidiaries and affiliates, including Far East Gems & Jewellery’s sites around the world (collectively 'the Site'). Please read these terms and conditions (the 'Terms and Conditions') carefully. BY USING THE SITE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS.

These terms and conditions also apply to business dealings in our physical store at 9 Perak Road Singapore 208130.

These Terms and Conditions govern your use of, and any purchase from, the Far East Gems & Jewellery Site, and constitute an agreement between you and Far East Gems & Jewellery. Far East Gems & Jewellery reserves the right to change or modify any of these Terms and Conditions or any policy or guideline of the Site at any time, and in its sole discretion. Any change or modification will be effective immediately upon posting of the revisions on the Site. Your continued use of the Site following the posting of its changes or modifications will constitute your acceptance of such changes or modifications. Therefore, you should frequently review these Terms and Conditions and any other applicable policies from time-to-time to understand the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Site. If you do not agree to the amended terms, you must stop using the Site.

Product Availability and Pricing

If you're interested in a piece of jewellery that is currently on back order, call us and we can tell you when the item will be back in stock. Sometimes with the volume of orders we receive, an item may go out of stock before we are able to post a notification on the Site. If this happens, we will contact you directly to discuss possible options.

Data, including prices, may be inaccurately displayed on our Site due to system or typographical errors. While we make every attempt to avoid these errors, they may occur. We reserve the right to correct any and all errors when they do occur, and we do not honour inaccurate or erroneous prices. If a product's listed price is lower than its actual price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping the product or cancel the order and notify you of such cancellation. If the order has been shipped, you agree to either return the product or pay the difference between the actual and charged prices. Our prices are also subject to change without notice. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact one of our Diamond and Jewellery Consultants at info@fegj.com.sg or +65 6734 3172.

We do not negotiate prices on our products and all our prices are final.

Comparison Purchasing

To keep our prices low, we do not allow comparison purchasing. Comparison purchasing is the act of buying several items with the intent of keeping the one you like best and returning the remainder. This causes undue restocking and inventory overhead and can be very costly. To confirm the quality of a jewellery item, please contact one of our Diamond and Jewellery Consultants at info@fegj.com.sg or +65 6734 3172, and we would be happy to help you make your choice.

Information on our Site

At Far East Gems & Jewellery, we make every attempt to ensure that our online catalogue is as accurate and complete as possible. In order to give you the opportunity to view our products in great detail, some products may appear larger or smaller than their actual size in our photographs; and since every computer monitor is set differently, colour and size may vary slightly.

Our objective is to provide you with as much information and detail about your prospective purchase as possible so that you can see the beauty and shape of a particular item. In compliance with industry standards and FTC regulations, Far East Gems & Jewellery states that carat total weight in all purchases may vary 0.05 carats from stated weight.

On the Site, we provide the measurement of our products based on our manufacturing specifications. Slight tolerances may be accounted for based on finishing during the manufacturing. Width tolerance on machine made wedding bands of 0.20mm is allowed. Cast manufactured rings can vary slightly more.

For gemstone and pearl measurements, a tolerance of 0.25mm is allowed.

For diamond jewellery set with multiple diamonds, we provide the minimum total carat weight for the piece. Colour and clarity grades are expressed as either a minimum or an average depending on the number of diamonds. If stated as a minimum, all diamonds within the piece are at or above the stated quality. If expressed as an average, collectively the quality is equal to or exceeds the grade stated.

Policy on Ethical Sourcing

At Far East Gems & Jewellery, we only purchase diamonds through the largest and most respected suppliers who, like us, proudly adhere to and enforce the standards established by the Kimberley Process, an international system that polices the trade of diamonds to ensure they are from sources free of conflict. Read more about Far East Gems & Jewellery's policy on ethical sourcing and the steps we take to ensure our diamonds are from conflict free sources.

Disclaimer on gem identification

If you are reading this, most likely you asked me casually about a gemstone. What it is, what is the origin. Has the gemstone been treated? How much is it worth?

Knowing the identity of a gemstone requires proper tests such as checking the Reflective index (https://www.britannica.com/science/refractive-index), checking the absorption spectrum (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/absorption%20spectrum) if the gemstone / material is translucent or transparent.

On top of these tests, you would also need to go through some microscopic examination, polariscope, UV light, EDX (https://www.thermofisher.com/blog/microscopy/edx-analysis-with-sem-how-does-it work/), FTIR (https://www.thermofisher.com/sg/en/home/industrial/spectroscopy-elemental-isotope-analysis/spectroscopy-elemental-isotope-analysis-learning-center/molecular-spectroscopy-information/ftir-information/ftir-basics.html).

One of the ways of determining origin of a gemstone, you need to analyze data acquired from the gemstone using RAMAN spectroscopy (https://www.bruker.com/en/products-and-solutions/infrared-and-raman/raman-spectrometers/what-is-raman-spectroscopy.html) and compare it to an existing accurate database.

Therefore, it is better send the item to the gemological laboratory. Also without proper testing of the gemstone / material, there is no basis to find out what it is worth.

If you accept this disclaimer, you agree to indemnify me, my family, my friends, my staff, my partners and my businesses all damages and/or consequences that may result from my opinion.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Far East Gems & Jewellery, its independent contractors, service providers and consultants, and their respective directors, employees and agents, from and against any claims, damages, costs, liabilities, and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to any Content you post, store or otherwise transmit on or through our Site or your use of or inability to use our Site, including without limitation any actual or threatened suit, demand or claim made against Far East Gems & Jewellery and/or its independent contractors, service providers, employees, directors or consultants, arising out of or relating to the Content, your conduct, your violation of these Terms and Conditions or your violation of the rights of any third party.
