Diamond appraisal services can be very useful in a variety of situations. For example: did you receive a diamond-encrusted piece of jewelry as a gift or as an inheritance and want to know its value? Do you want to buy such a jewel and evaluate its price that the payment you pay for it is indeed worth the value of the jewel? Do you want to insure jewellery studded with diamonds and the insurance requires you to have a professional diamond appraisal? For these and other reasons, you can perform a diamond appraisal at a company specializing in diamond jewelry and at expert gemologists.
The 4 parameters by which diamonds are evaluated:
If you have diamond jewelry that you are interested in evaluating, you will need to check it using the 4C:
- Cleanliness – CLARITY – a term that refers to the natural flaws in a diamond. Considering that every diamond has natural flaws, the degree of cleanliness of the jewelry has a considerable effect on its value. The defects can be external or internal. When it comes to external defects, it is usually possible to polish and treat such defects by losing a small amount of the diamond’s weight.
- COLOR – Diamonds can come in different colors. In general, the whiter the diamond, the higher its value. This is to exclude rare blue, red, green, purple, pink and orange diamonds whose value can reach millions of dollars.
- CARAT weight – you are probably used to hearing about carat in the context of gold. For example: a 14K gold ring. This karat refers to the purity of the metal in relation to gold. Carat in diamonds refers to the weight of the diamonds where each 1 carat refers to 0.2 grams. That is, 5 carats are equal to 1 gram. The heavier the weight of the diamond, the more expensive it will be.
- Cutting – CUT – the index refers to the finish level of the diamond. The angles and cuts build the shape and shine the diamond needs.
On these parameters you should add everything related to the diamond’s profit factor, the reputation of the store/business that markets the jewelry, taxes and more.
