Sell your stones to VERDAAN

Miners, dealers, cutters and collectors: offer us rough, cut gems, diamonds and mineral specimens. The Ragtrail trade desk, VERDAAN's wholesale trading hub, reviews every offer and replies within two working days.

How it works

  1. Tell us what you have, with photos. Parcels, single stones and whole collections are all welcome.
  2. We reply with questions, a price or a request for samples or a video call.
  3. Goods are examined in person or by an independent laboratory before purchase.
  4. Payment by bank transfer once the goods are accepted. Stones we buy may be offered to our buyers worldwide.

What we look for: fine rough from Pakistan and Afghanistan, unheated rubies and sapphires, emeralds, spinel, tourmaline, aquamarine, rare collector stones, diamonds with documents, and aesthetic mineral specimens with full locality.

Rough diamonds require a Kimberley Process certificate. We do not buy coral, ivory or tortoiseshell of protected species, or goods from sanctioned sources. Questions: info@ragtrail.com · WhatsApp +44 7513 875488 (Ragtrail).

Daylight photos on a plain background, with a coin or ruler for scale, are best. They are seen only by our trade desk.
