The majority of our gemstones are semi-precious . We do have a few synthetic stones that have been born out of custom request and kept in the collection.

All in-stock orders ship within one to three business days. All gemstones are handset. If you ordered customized hardware with gemstones, please allow for an additional two business days for our team to handset your stones and ship your hardware. In the event an item in an order is back-ordered, your order may arrive in multiple shipments. Pre-orders may take up to eight weeks.

All backorders will be fulfilled as soon as possible and remain active unless the order is canceled. When available, backorder lead times will be listed on each product page if applicable.

From time to time, we may not have stock levels to accommodate your needs. An order is designated as a pre-order when a customer orders an item that is out of stock. When possible, we are happy to take a pre-order to reserve incoming stock for you. Pre-orders may take up to eight weeks and availability varies. Please contact hello@modern-matter.com for all pre-order inquiries.

We can accommodate orders for custom metal finishes, gemstones, and large quantities. *Restrictions apply. Please contact us at hello@modern-matter.com to discuss pricing as well as product availability for special projects and orders.
