Recrystallized gemstones "Inamori Stones"
Kyocera has provided recrystallized gemstones since 1975 based on its belief that the inherent attraction of jewels is to create for people a dream and offer personal enrichment. Its jewelry business has been supported by the crystallizing technology that Kyocera has developed for more than 33 years. Recrystallized gemstones, also known as Inamori Stones, are jewels that have the same chemical composition as the genuine article. They are cultivated under careful control by applying the crystallizing technology of fine ceramics. Recrystallized gemstones have fewer feathers than natural jewels and have vivid colors and a radiant sheen. They can also be machined in complex ways.
Inamori Stones’ sparkles add brilliant colors to Dress keys.
