Priya Nadar
Gemmology Writer
Priya writes the House's technical guides — how spinel forms, how to tell it apart from ruby, sapphire and its many look-alikes, and why it is so rarely treated. Her articles draw on published gemmological references and the reporting standards of laboratories such as GIA, GRS and Gübelin.
