Disclaimers

While www.snowandstones.com strives to provide the most accurate and up-to-date information possible, materials on this website may occasionally contain inaccuracies, typographical errors, or outdated information. Snow & Stones shall not be held liable for such inaccuracies or omissions.

We make every effort to accurately represent the color, brilliance, and appearance of each gemstone and jewelry item. However, variations in lighting, photography, monitor settings, screen calibration, and gemstone angles may result in slight differences between the photographed item and the item received.

To provide highly detailed gemstone imagery, we may use advanced macro and microscopic photography systems. These images may reveal inclusions or details not visible to the naked eye and are intended to provide greater transparency regarding each gemstone’s natural characteristics.

Gemstone clarity grading is subjective and may vary slightly between gemological professionals or laboratories. Measurements and gemstone weights may vary slightly due to manufacturing tolerances.

www.snowandstones.com reserves the right to correct pricing or typographical errors and reserves the right to refuse transactions or shipments deemed high risk.

Gemstone Origin Opinions & Certificates

We strive to accurately disclose gemstone origins and treatments to the best of our knowledge and based on available gemological information.

Because gemstone origin determination and treatment detection are subjective sciences that may vary between gemological laboratories, www.snowandstones.com cannot be held liable for differing third-party laboratory opinions regarding gemstone origin or treatment disclosures. Such differences shall not constitute grounds for returns, disputes, or negative claims through third-party marketplaces or payment providers.

We also strive to accurately disclose any known gemstone treatments, including beryllium treatment and enhancement methods, based on professional gemological evaluation.
