Established
in 1975 by Ted Themelis and his family, Gemlab has remained
committed in serving the gem trade industry representing a heritage
of innovation, experience and trust for over 35 years. For more
than 25 years Gemlab and Ted Themelis manufacture innovative gemstone treatment
furnaces and equipment par excellence based on our in-depth,
diversified knowledge on the subject. All furnaces and related gemstone treatment equipment are designed by Ted Themelis, an international renowned expert in gemstone treatment and they are available only from our laboratory in Bangkok, Thailand. We do not have agents or resellers of our products. You are dealing direct with the source assuring the best service and best price of our products.
For the first time now the serious gem dealer can start heating a handful of gems next to his desk using our our mini 1700oC furnace (Model M40-1700) occupying less than 2 square feet of desk space and plugged into any 220 Vac electric outlet. Other furnace models are available. |
FOOD-FOR-THOUGHT
Our high temperature furnaces are designed to execute heating parameters provided by the operator for heat-treating gems in various configuration modes. We do not sell the “know-how” technology for heating customer’s gemstones; the “know how” technology must be developed by the user-customer. We only sell our furnaces and related gem treatment equipoment as per specifications, capabilities and limitations.
It is like selling a rice cooker; the user should know what type of rice to select, slow or fast heating-cooling time, cooking temperature at a given time, water, ingredients, and other parameters to cook the rice as desired. It is a certain recipe, not applied to every kind of rice.
If you are novice in this subject, I suggest to read and undestand my book "The Heat Treatment of Ruby & Sapphire" before thinking to buy any of the equipment offered for sale. Likewise, for the potential but seriously dedicated user, I suggest to take my course #510 offered periodically in Bangkok before buying any gem treatment equipment. - Ted Themelis |
