With any major investment, you should understand the features of a diamond that increase its value and what your objectives are. Size alone does not determine significant value. All significant diamonds should be accompanied by a professional diamond certificate, preferably by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) or the American Gem Society (AGS). These two labs have high ethical reputations and consistent grading standards. Your diamond certificate will have a report number and it is best when the number is microscopically laser inscribed on your diamond for security and confirmation of the diamonds certified information. The laser inscription matches the diamond to the certificate and helps in case you ever need your diamond identified. If you ever have any doubts on the report or diamond, you should verify it directly with the lab both of our recommended labs have consumer direct web portals for such confirmation. We also recommend that you don’t rush in your decision, because you want to be confident and happy with your choice in a major purchase of a large premium engagement diamond.
On this purchase journey, romance should be combined with reliable information so that the purity of your desire and love isn’t tarnished by a shady deal or regretful purchase. Be confident that information is your friend, especially in this case. We are always happy to provide additional support or information as you consider your significant diamond purchase.
