About 4C Minerals

Mineralogists with a passion for stones

Since 2008, 4C Minerals has been bringing natural stones from all over the world to your home. Our range includes luxury natural decorations, decorative stones of all sizes, collector and investment stones, products made of natural stones, as well as jewellery with natural gemstones.

Our mission

Natural stones, correctly identified

We offer natural stones in all their forms, both in our store and in our online shop. Every year we import new items from all over the world, and we make sure our range also includes unconventional, original materials.

We place great emphasis on the natural origin of every stone and on its correct identification and description. Thanks to many years of experience, mineralogical training and analytical capabilities, you can rely on the accuracy of our labelling – if needed, we will support it with a mineralogical analysis or an expert opinion.

What does 4C in our name mean?

The abbreviation 4C stands for the four quality criteria by which gemstones are assessed. Our goal is to meet them with every stone we offer.

01

Colour

The hue, tone and saturation of the stone.

02

Clarity

How free the stone is of inclusions and blemishes.

03

Carat

The weight of the stone.

04

Cut

The proportions, symmetry and polish of the cut.

Our range includes only “4C specimens” – carefully selected examples of high-quality stones, from small pieces to unique museum specimens weighing over 200 kg.
