● The first step to Jewelry Exchange – Diamond Certification
When you put your diamond ring up for jewelry exchange, the prospective diamond buyers need to receive some sorts of guarantee regarding the quality features of your diamond. This requires you to get a diamond certification performed by an objective gem lab. We recommend that you use the diamond appraisal and diamond certification services of the GIA – the most authoritative gem lab with accurate diamond certification of an internationally recognized standard. There are other gem labs like AGS, IGI, HRD, and CIBJO; however, GIA remains the most accurate and is widely used by diamond experts in the industry to get diamond certification. The GIA grading report will provide insight into the diamond’s main quality features such as carat, color, clarity and cut; as well as the diamond’s measurements, fluorescence, symmetry and finish.
