Judith Ripka Gemstone and Diamond Quality

Can anyone who has purchased Ripka jewelry please help me with the quality of her gemstones and diamonds.  I watched the Ripka gold hour this morning and nothing was mentioned about where her gemstones originate from or the quality of her diamonds.  What kind of saphires, emeralds, and rubies does she use?  If I'm going to pay $1200 for a bracelet with gems and diamonds, I'd like to know where they come from.

Re: Judith Ripka Gemstone and Diamond Quality

I have only purchased her jewelry in silver, but all my pieces have gemstones, as those are my real passion.  I've been collecting gemstone jewelry from all over the place for about 25 years, and I can say that her gemstones have always been of the highest quality and cut.  I really am not fussy about a gem's origin, as long as it looks beautiful.

They didn't say but her sapphires weren't dark as in almost black. They showed a very pretty vibrant blue
