How it sells itself

GemViewer is a 3D product viewer built for jewelry. It traces light through the facet geometry of every gemstone in real time, so diamonds, sapphires, rubies and emeralds show their fire and brilliance on your product pages. Upload the .glb file you already export from your design software, attach it to a product, and add the viewer section in your theme editor.

vitrine is the platform for interactive 3D product experiences. Upload a GLB model to the visual editor, set the lighting, background, and camera angle, then connect it to any product with a single ID. Customers rotate, zoom and inspect directly on the page. The viewer runs in the browser using WebAssembly with WebGPU and automatic WebGL2 fallback.

Key points
  • Ray-traced light through real gemstone facet geometry, rendered in real time
  • Works with .glb exports from Rhino, Matrix, 3Design and other design tools
  • Automatic stone detection with diamond, sapphire, ruby and emerald presets
  • Visual editor Adjust lighting, background, camera, and effects in real time
  • Looks & Layouts style once, apply to every product across your store
  • Works with Dawn, Horizon, and all Online Store 2.0 themes out of the box
