What Impacts the Value of Your Diamond?

Carat Weight

Weight is measured in carats, and larger stones often bring stronger payouts. Stones that cross half- and full-carat thresholds tend to carry more market value.

Cut

Cut affects the diamond’s brilliance. Ideal or excellent cuts reflect light better and are more desirable. We look at how the stone is shaped and proportioned.

Clarity

We check for visible marks and inclusions using magnification. Stones with fewer internal or surface flaws typically appraise higher.

Color

We grade color on the standard D-to-Z scale. Stones closer to D are considered colorless and worth more. Slight tints can impact price.

Certificate (Optional)

We buy diamonds with or without grading reports. If you have one from GIA or another lab, bring it along. It can speed up the evaluation, but we’ll still assess the diamond in person.
