Abstract: This paper proposes a systematic literature review (SLR) as a continuation of the research on gemstone drawing, building upon the outcomes of previous research conducted by the authors and expanding the field of inquiry to include sustainability issues in gemmology. The review conducted in order to analyze scientific contributions consistent with the international discussion on sustainability, also according to the Sustainable Development Goals, was limited to publications from the last decade. Having defined the specific areas of focus, as much related to the disciplinary field of design as to gemmology and sustainability, a qualitative-quantitative analysis was conducted on more than 700 articles. The analyses allowed the authors to discuss the geographical distribution of authors and the keywords identified, as well as to propose in-depth focuses for the categories “eco-design,” “gemmology,” “promotion,” and “innovation.” In particular, the latter noted how technological innovation applied to digital modeling can bring significant benefits to gemmology from a sustainability perspective, offering interesting insights for future development of the present research.
