Colored Gemstones and Pearls
Serengeti Company has been deeply entrenched in the colored gemstone trade since the very beginning. From the plains of East Africa to Colombia to Madagascar, we have been on the ground and in the mines hunting for the finest ruby, sapphire, emerald, tanzanite, and dozens of other varieties of gemstones. We have sold millions of carats of colored gems to manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers alike. Our global contacts and unrivaled expertise allow us to bring the finest gems direct to you with unmatched value and efficiency.
