Galarneau's Gems
We Cut Rocks

WCR

Welcome to Galarneau's Gems
a Unique Rock Gallery with a Rock Shop


At Galarneau's Gems we cut our own stones.  WCR stands for we cut rocks.  Marty and I do most of the cutting and jewelry making.  Facetted and concave gemstones, custom cut cabochons, and gemstone jewelry are our main products. Our goal is to provide you with custom cut gemstones at the best possible price. Buy directly from the cutter and you get custom shaped stones, with custom cuts, with the most brilliance, and the best value for your dollar. No middleman.  Sometimes I will buy stones and jewelry from other manufacturers. I buy these stones either because they are a very good value or they are rare. These items will not be sold until they are closely scrutinized and properly described.  All known gemstone enhancements will be disclosed for each stone.

Pictures:  The pictures that appear on this web-site were taken by a Sony MVC-FD100 camera  and processed through Adobe PhotoShop LE software.  What I see on my monitor is as close to what I see with my eyes as I can get.  The image editing is used to correct inadequacies of the pictures, not to achieve perfection or hide imperfection.  The pictures are not life size. The file size of each picture is about 200k for most of them. Some are larger to show the detail. Please give them time to load. Please refer to the size and descriptions  given for the proper size and color.
     The gemstone you receive may look slightly different in color than what you see on your monitor due to your own monitors characteristics.  Please use the photo and the description of color as a guide only.
