Our Gemological Laboratory
Inside IGL's scientific examination environment equipped with modern spectroscopic, optical, and diagnostic instrumentation.
Precision Testing Environment
The IGL laboratory is designed specifically for precise optical, chemical, and structural characterization of gemstones. Operating in climate-controlled conditions with standardized daylight-equivalent illumination (D65 rating), our facility maintains ambient stability necessary for micro-analytical testing.
From basic gemological instruments to advanced spectroscopic diagnostic suites, every tool is integrated into a unified laboratory information and verification workflow.
