It is important to note whether it is the actual gemstone that is important or the color when you are specifying the gemstone requirements.

The jeweler will be able to advise you on the color of stones and ensure that you get the right stones.

If you are requiring the jeweler to custom design a beaded jewelry, it is helpful to give him as much information about your style as possible. It will help the jeweler understand your unique style. If you are designing the project and simply requesting the jeweler to make it up, it is very important for the instructions to be as clear as possible.
