Diamonds and Their Worth (The 4 Cs)

Diamonds are expensive due to many factors.  Supply and demand does play an important role, but keep in mind the process to mine these precious gems are in the billions!  Did you know the earliest Diamond on the market today was created 200 million years ago.  Interesting isn’t it.  

The way a Diamond is priced can be confusing to many. The best explanation is that asking for the price of a diamond is like asking for the price of a house. A real estate agent can’t quote you a price for a house without knowing its size, condition, location, etc. This process is the same one used when buying a diamond. A diamond’s beauty, rarity, and price depend on the interplay of all the 4Cs—cut, clarity, carat, and color.

What We Expect from You

We want you to learn the basics and get an understanding of Diamond value.  Shop around and ask a lot of questions.  You may see a price you like.  Write that price down.  Ask them the color, weight, clarity and cut.  Ask if the stone has a certification, not an appraisal.  You will soon realize why the diamond is priced the way it is.
