You\u2019re shopping for engagement rings. You\u2019ve found a few diamonds that have caught your eye. You\u2019re wondering what diamond certification is and how much it matters. Should you buy a diamond that\u2019s GIA certified?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Well, that depends. In our post, we answer your burning questions about diamond certifications. We outline what you should know about certificates, including a few secrets we\u2019re sharing here for the first time.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Diamond Certification?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Diamond certifications are issued by a gemological lab and describe a diamond\u2019s specs such as its color, clarity, and carat weight. A diamond certification helps you verify what it is you\u2019re buying.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There are many gemological labs that provide diamond certifications, including the GIA, EGL, DGC, HRD, IGI, and others.<\/span><\/p>\n

Comparing Diamond Certifications<\/span><\/h3>\n

Each gem lab has its own standard for grading diamonds, and no single lab entity is the best. Some labs are stricter, while others are more lenient. In general, the GIA is the strictest of all the gemological grading labs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because each lab has its own methods and standards, it\u2019s difficult to compare diamonds graded by different lab entities. Let\u2019s say we have two diamonds to choose from. One is a 1 carat SI1 H graded by the GIA. The other is a 1 carat VS2 G diamond with an EGL international certificate. Looking at the certificates alone, it’s impossible to compare two diamonds because the lab grades have different meanings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s why it’s best to compare diamonds graded by the same gemological lab, such as two diamonds certified by IGI. Look at GIA diamonds next to GIA diamonds, and EGL diamonds next to EGL diamonds when reviewing specs and prices.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to note that before 1931 when the GIA began issuing certifications, diamonds were priced and sold based on how they looked. There were no paper reports that stated the color or clarity of a diamond. Diamonds were solely selected based on how they looked, and that should still be the most important consideration when buying a diamond today.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What a Single Grade on a Certificate Means\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

On a diamond report, several qualities of the diamond are described. For instance, you\u2019ll see a clarity grade. Clarity grades range from FL diamonds (flawless) to I3 diamonds (obvious inclusions). There are only 10 clarity grades total on the scale. That means all the millions of diamonds in the world fit into these 10 categories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Within a single clarity grade, there are thousands of diamonds. Among SI1 diamonds alone, you\u2019re bound to find significant differences between two diamonds\u2014along with significant price differences. You might find a horrible looking SI2 GIA diamond, or a stunning SI2 GIA diamond. You might see an F color SI1 clarity diamond priced at $3,000, while another diamond with the same grades from the same lab is priced at $5,000.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beyond grading, there are other qualities of a diamond that impact its beauty and price. Cut quality, including symmetry and proportions, plays a role in the diamond\u2019s brilliance. That\u2019s why the appearance of the diamond is more important than the specs. When shopping for a diamond, it\u2019s critical to look at the diamond itself, instead of just its diamond report.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Truth About GIA Certifications\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Many diamond jewelry experts consider the GIA to be overly strict in their grading standards. Because the GIA grades are so strict, the quality of the diamond is often not appreciated unless you\u2019re looking at the stone under 30x magnification. While you may think that strict grading would be a positive, the grading differences are so minute that they cannot be appreciated by you\u2014the retailer customer. This means that you\u2019re paying for aspects that you\u2019ll never be able to see or notice.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While you want to ensure you get a premium diamond, choosing one with a GIA certificate that meets every criteria can be extremely expensive.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for a beautiful diamond that looks incredible to the naked eye and stays within a budget, we don\u2019t recommend a GIA certified diamond. By choosing a diamond with a certification from a more lenient lab allows you to find an exquisite diamond at an outstanding price.<\/span><\/p>\n

Should I Buy a GIA Certified Diamond?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

You shouldn\u2019t buy a GIA certified diamond, unless you care about the prestige of the lab name on your diamond report. You can find a beautiful diamond at a lower price point by choosing a different diamond certificate, such as one from the EGL or DGC. The difference will be the name on the certificate, which you\u2019re unlikely to worry about over the coming decades when wearing your ring.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s say you have a $3,000 engagement ring budget, and you\u2019re looking for a certain color, clarity, and cut grade. You may not be able to afford a GIA diamond with those specs\u2014it might cost $7,000. The other option is to buy a diamond with those specs but is graded by a different lab entity. You can still find a beautiful diamond within your budget that looks great and is certified.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now let\u2019s say there are two similar diamonds\u2014one with a GIA certification and one with an EGL diamond certification.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The first diamond is a 1-carat H I2 diamond certified by the GIA that costs $6,000. The second diamond is a 1-carat EGL F SI1 diamond for the same price of $6,000. The EGL diamond might sound like the better deal, because you are getting a better grade for the same price. <\/span>But because the GIA grades more strictly, it\u2019s likely that the diamonds are in fact more similar in appearance and beauty than the specs first seem. In this case, if the certificate name is important to you, go with the GIA diamond. If the lab name doesn\u2019t matter to you, and you prefer the look of the EGL diamond, go with that one.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3 Key Factors When Considering Diamond Certification\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Diamond<\/p>\n

When shopping for diamonds and comparing their certifications, follow these top tips from our diamond jewelry experts.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Assess the Diamond\u2019s Appearance<\/span><\/h3>\n

Looking at a diamond is the best way to determine how much you like it and how much beauty it has. Looking at a certificate and the diamond\u2019s specs won\u2019t tell you how the diamond actually appears.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When buying online, we recommend a vendor who offers free returns with a money-back guarantee. If the diamond doesn\u2019t meet your standards when it arrives, you can send it back without issue. If you\u2019re shopping in person, look at the diamonds up-close before buying.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the end, you and your partner are the ones who will be admiring the diamond for years to come. It\u2019s most important that you\u2019re happy with how it appears. No certificate can tell you if you like the appearance of a diamond and how beautiful it is.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Decide if You Care About the Gem Lab Name<\/span><\/h3>\n

Some diamond buyers are concerned with the lab name on their diamond report. They want to see the GIA name on their paper. Others aren\u2019t concerned by the lab name, and are comfortable with a diamond that\u2019s certified by the IGI, DGC, or EGL.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beyond the lab entity\u2019s name, some buyers want a certain grading to be listed on their report. They want an F color diamond, for example. If an F color diamond is important to you, going with an IGI or EGL certificate allows you to achieve that F color grade at a lower price than you\u2019d pay to get an F diamond from the GIA.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Compare Prices Within Gem Lab Certs<\/span><\/h3>\n

When buying a diamond, you want to be confident of the quality of the diamond for the price you\u2019re paying. Because each gem lab grades differently and there are thousands of diamonds out there, it can seem difficult to understand what you\u2019re getting for what you\u2019re paying.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The best way to ensure you\u2019re getting good value for your money is to purchase from a diamond vendor who is trustworthy and offers competitive prices. What\u2019s the easiest way to assess this? Look at diamonds from different online vendors to gauge the price difference.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Compare diamonds with the same specs given by the same gem lab. For example, compare 1 carat VS2 F diamonds graded by the EGL at one online shop to other 1 carat VS2 F diamonds graded by the EGL at a different online vendor. By looking at similarly graded diamonds, you\u2019ll get an idea of which vendor offers the best price based on the certificate and specs.<\/span><\/p>\n

If I Buy a Diamond with a Certificate Other than GIA, Can I Resell It?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Yes, you can definitely resell a diamond that has a certificate from a lab other than the GIA. A diamond is a diamond and always maintains value.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Some shoppers have mentioned that jewelry stores and online vendors give the advice that they should only buy GIA diamonds, because that\u2019s the only lab that can be trusted. They\u2019re told that if they buy a diamond with a different certificate, they won\u2019t be able to resell it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Well, that\u2019s just not accurate. If you buy a GIA diamond, you pay more for it up front, and the resale value is also higher. If you buy a DGC diamond, you pay less upfront, and the resale value will also be less. The value is relative, just as the resale value is.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep in mind that a diamond is a retail product. No matter what lab certification your diamond has, you won\u2019t be able to sell it back for the same price you paid. Diamonds lose some value on their original purchase price, whether it has a GIA certification or not.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

First and foremost, a jeweler should understand what your needs are. Are you focused on getting a GIA diamond? Or do you want a diamond that offers plenty of beauty at a great price? Look for a jeweler who will listen to what\u2019s important to you, and who will work with you to find a diamond that matches your priorities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019re shopping for engagement rings. You\u2019ve found a few diamonds that have caught your eye. You\u2019re wondering what diamond certification is and how much it matters. Should you buy a diamond that\u2019s GIA certified?<\/p>\n

Is it OK to buy a diamond without a certificate?<\/h2>\n

It is generally recommended to buy a diamond with a reliable grading certificate from a reputable gemological laboratory. A certificate provides important information about the diamond’s quality and ensures transparency in the transaction. Without a certificate, it can be challenging to accurately assess the diamond’s characteristics and value. Obtaining a certificate from a trusted source helps to ensure that you are making an informed decision and receiving a genuine and accurately graded diamond.<\/p>\n

Final Thoughts on Diamond Certification<\/h2>\n

A diamond certification helps you understand what it is you\u2019re buying. In the end, it\u2019s most valuable to focus on how the diamond looks, not what the certificate says.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also important to keep in mind what you desire in a diamond. If having the authority of a GIA diamond is important to you, it might be worth paying the premium price for a GIA certificate. If you care more about what the diamond looks like (which is what we recommend), you can get better value by choosing a diamond with a certificate from a different lab. You\u2019ll end up with a stunning, certified diamond at a fraction of the price.<\/p>\n
