Diamonds with Certificates
Diamond certificates, also known as diamond grading reports, are offered by independent
gemological laboratories such as GIA (Gemological Institute of America) and EGL
(European Gemological Institute). A gemology laboratory grades a particular loose
diamond on various quality factors such as color, clarity, polish, symmetry and
florescence. Certificates offer consumers an extra layer of confidence that the
diamond is authentic and as described on the website. In most cases no mention is
made about the value of the diamond.
Why Buy A Diamond Without A Certificate?
While diamond grading reports are useful, they are not essential and diamonds of
similar quality but without certificates are often
better value for your money.
At Israel-Diamonds.com we supply our non-certificate diamonds with complete and
comprehensive details about all diamond
quality factors. You'll get the same information from us that you would
get in a typical diamond grading report. We have been in the profession of diamond
manufacturing for over 40 years – longer than most of the gemological laboratories
– and we stand by our excellent reputation for accuracy and integrity.
All diamond grading is subjective and our expertise is at least equal to that of
the major gemological laboratories. We offer a 30-day no-questions-asked money-back
guarantee and we encourage you, during that month, to take your diamond to a local
diamond expert to have it evaluated. That's how confident we are in our grading
ability.
If you do decide you want to buy a diamond with a certificate, we can arrange to
have any diamond you are considering purchasing sent to a laboratory for grading.
The cost is $100 per carat with a minimum of $79. If the lab report shows that the
diamond is below the grades claimed on our website, we will pay the cost of the
certificate and you are under no obligation to buy the diamond.
