Sithy Gems

How can you tell that Sithy is a thief? Sithy complains that my rough emerald is poor quality.

Take a look at the picture provided in my original posting. There is almost no matrix or cement, just pure emerald. There are very few points. There are some striations but those should be easily polished smooth.

It is short and compact and the base is even present. I have a geology and crystal background and I personally inspected and removed the fractured material prior to sending it. As far as rough emeralds go you can’t get much better! This 51 carat emerald should have easily yielded a 30 carat cut and polished gem and a 5+ carat gem.

There is no way that this stone would have crumbled like Sithy said it did. On a side note, Beryl is the type of stone emeralds come from and they are slightly more delicate than corundum the stone that produces sapphires and rubies. Any gem cutter knows this and would adjust their cutting and polishing techniques accordingly. In other words Sithy lies when he says that my stone crumbled.

Another way that you know that Sithy is a thief. He states that my stones produced a 14% yield like this is a great accomplishment. Even by Google’s standards rough emeralds produce 30%-70% yields. 14% would be equal to catastrophic loss of material.

He never contacted me throughout the entire processing of my stones! However, to an unsuspecting reader 14% might seem acceptable. With this in mind, Sithy automatically factors in 50% of the yields for himself.

If you send your rough stones to Sithy you better believe you will only receive the left-over junk from the main cuttings because he keeps the best for himself. Please Don’t Trust This Lying Thief.

Ken Munnell is putting blame on the cutters calling liars and thief due to his lack of knowledge, his rough is poor grade emerald rough further it's formation of crystal structure is like salty formation ( more like calcite). Further stone is more flatter.

Dear readers, if we would had lied and cheated people we would have gone out of business long time ago and you would have seen hundreds of complaints from other Customers too, but you see few who aren't satisfied with the out come due to their poor quality rough.,and blaming cutters, Dear Readers, we had been cutting gems for USA & European Market for 25 years, we have thousands of customers who had worked with us, we could give references to anybody who would like to know about us.

If he flashes a torchlight it doesn't mean stone is perfect alright, Its translucent to Opaque stone, This represents Ken's has lack of knowledge on the cutting side. If you need more information please contact us sithygems@gmail.com

@Sainul M here is another customer you stole from. You have had 25 years to practice your lies.

I detailed my experience above in which you stole the best stones I sent you in an almost identical manner. You lies are the same too - you are the expert so people should trust you. These other people and I have nothing to gain by taking time to warn people of your thievery, while you make money when you lie.

You said you could do whatever you want in Sri Lanka - and that seems true. The police will not arrest you there, but people around the world should spread the word you are not to be trusted.
