Collection: Online Lessons

As always, Rui’s gem classes are outstanding (and a lot of fun!) to attend. With his decade-long gem & jewellery knowledge and background, every aspect of the history of jewellery becomes a fascinating story you’d like to learn more about. I highly recommend his classes!

Thank you very much for your generosity in sharing the knowledge and experience! It's priceless to me. We spent a great time talking and all the things I have learned are very useful! Hope to have a chance to meet you personally!

The online course undertaken with Rui was exceptional, he is not just a brilliant gemmologist but engaging and entertaining presenter. Although I’m a qualified gemmologist there was so much to enjoy and learn.

I have taken several informative educational webinar classes with Rui. Each section was well designed and covered the topic clearly and thoroughly. The presentations include excellent photos, graphs and a detailed bibliography. Even a seasoned gemologist will enjoy and learn from the classes because Rui puts the information in a historical context. Rui is very knowledgeable and passionate about gemology and I can highly recommend his classes.

Many thanks for your insight, input, and support to answer all the queries. Your enthusiasm and humour were very perfectly pitched to keep us motivated. In fact, it is the best I have ever been to. Thank you for sharing your valuable knowledge.

The knowledge I acquired in Mr. Rui Galopim's workshop exceeded my expectations. Since I want to dedicate myself to 3D jewelry design, this workshop was very helpful to me in finding better design solutions. I found particularly interesting the part dedicated to the quotation of a diamond jewel. It allows me to make better choices in order to avoid unnecessary production costs. I am very excited with all the information. It was definitely the workshop I needed.

This past week, I had the pleasure of attending the Applied Gemmology for Jewellery Designers seminar, led by Rui Galopim de Carvalho, whom I have admired and followed for a long time. Rui has a remarkable talent for making his vast knowledge of jewellery, gemmology, and history, both accessible and captivating. From a jewellery designer's perspective, I found his course especially enriching. It provided a comprehensive overview of essential topics, enriched with fascinating anecdotes and invaluable advice. I will especially remember his emphasis on the importance of continuing education to assimilate concepts that should never fade with time and foremost, how he communicates his deep passion for the precious art of jewellery.

We all thoroughly enjoyed your class on Synthetic Diamonds. The information provided was at a level suitable for both beginners and more experienced gemmologists. It gave us lots to talk about at work the next day and motivation to read and learn more.

Gemstones is indeed a fascinating world and I am truly grateful for your guidance, which is priceless.  Following to your seminars was the best thing during the pandemic!! Needless to say that I am looking forward to your next seminar.
