CERTIFICATION


The Gemological Institute of America, GIA, which describes itself as 'the world's foremost authority in diamond grading' is the organisation that takes care of setting the worldwide standards for diamonds. More simply stated: It enables non-experts to judge the quality of a gem by providing a standardized set of quality indicators. That way you can compare several different diamonds without having studied gemology.
Diamonds are hopefully forever

It is crucial that your ring holds the diamond tight in place. You don't want the expensive diamond or any other gemstone to get lost on the ring finger of your significant other. First of all, it is a material loss. But above all, it is an emotional one. As a result, it is advisable to keep the following advice in mind when shopping for the ring that is about to accompany your partner for life:

The more claws that hold the gemstone, the better. The lower the setting, the less potential damage. If in doubt, go for a bezel rub over setting rather than the classical claw. And last but not least: The heavier the setting, the easier it will endure the decades.

Diamond certification



If you are about to buy a diamond, make sure that the jeweller provides you with a certificate of the diamond. This certification informs you about carat, colour, clarity and cut of the diamond. There are four major appraisal organisations that are both well-known and accepted in the international community.

  • Gemological Institute of America (GIA)

  • International Gemological Institute (IGI)

  • American Gem Society Laboratories (AGSL)

  • European Gemological Laboratory (EGL)


  • Make sure that one of these organisations has had an appraising look at the stone as this provides you with an independent preview by an external expert that is not affiliated with the jeweller you are buying the diamond from.

    In case the jeweller is not able or willed to provide a certification for the gemstone don't buy it. The options are clear: either the jeweller obtains one or you contact one of the organisations listed above in order to get the stone appraised by an independent appraiser.
