    Kado Gems Cutting & Polishing Centre

    The follow-up project to Threadnet Hunza is designed to empower local women, in this case by training them in gem cutting, polishing and selling. At the time of research the finishing touches were being put on the shop which will eventually sparkle with rubies, sapphire, topaz and quartz.

    Hunza Art Museum

    Hunza-Nagyr wool is renowned for its durability, though it's being displaced by factory imitations. Hunza Art Museum is another reliable store, and can provide guarantee certificates for semiprecious stones and gems.
