Abstract

The present invention is of a gemstone imaging apparatus (10) and system and method of use of the system in the measurement and defining of processing parameters for gemstones and diamonds while providing enhanced accuracy in measurements and in the end-product produced, than known gemstone imaging devices and methods. The gemstone imaging for use in the processing and measurement and defining of processing parameters for gemstones. The gemstone imaging system (10) including: (a) a camera device (22) including at least one lens (20) for producing an image of the gemstone (12); (b) a gemstone securing mechanism (14) for securing said gemstone (12); (c) a gemstone displacement element (24), attached to said gemstone securing mechanism (14), for rotationally displacing said gemstone (12) in relation to said at least one lens (20); (d) a means (26) for aligning and securing said at least one lens; and (e) a displacement element attached to said means for aligning and securing said at least one lens (20), for displacing said at least one lens (20) in relation to said gemstone (12).
