When our Gem Lab was accredited by the American Gem Society
in 1961, it was the first in Arkansas. Accredited Gem Labs
are rare because of the extremely stringent staffing requirements
to qualify. A Certified Gemologist must be on staff at all
times, and state-of-the-art gemological testing equipment
is required for the lab to be accredited. Even today, there
are fewer than 300 Accredited Gem Labs in all of North America.
Underwood's Accredited Gem Lab guarantees real protection
for our customers against gemstones that might be artificially
treated, dyed or otherwise adulterated, an increasingly
common occurrence. And even though we travel all over the
world to buy our precious gems at the source, for over 40
years we have had this inflexible rule.
No matter where in the world we travel to buy precious
gems, the gems much come back to Fayetteville and undergo
our accredited gem lab verification process before they
are offered to our customers in the store.
