Selling a jewel has never been easier. Neither choosing a reliable buyer, or when it comes to giving away your precious jewelry. Moreover, when it turns to diamond, the transaction becomes even more difficult, as diamond is the most heart-stealing, elegant and precious jewel. But on the other hand, storing such jewelry in cupboards is also not worthy. Here the stage comes of choosing a reliable buyer for your diamonds, who can evaluate your diamond properly and can pay you back a reasonable amount of cash for them.

Before going to any diamond buyer, you must pre-evaluate your tiny shining pieces and this requires a reasonable amount of awareness. Placing a value on diamond requires taking into account multiple variables which are separated by slight variation that only a trained eye can detect. Here are a few points to be taken under consideration while selling your worthy pieces.

The most common factors that play a significant role in valuation of diamond are 4C’s. These C’s respectively stands for Carat, Color, Clarity and Cut.

Carat– Values of diamonds are assigned weight ranges and the slightest of differences in weight can make a considerable change. Precision instruments are used to measure diamond weight and it is generally described to hundredth of a carat in decimals.

Color– Diamond are a color graded on a scale defined by GIA on an alphabetical scale starting at D or colorless and Z as light yellow, where value is based on how little color a diamond exhibits.

Clarity– Clarity is defined as amount of and placement of inclusions within or blemishes on the surface of diamond, as viewed under 10 x magnifications.

Cut– As one of the hardest factors to quantify, cut is often overlooked although it has a large effect on the value due to ability to create life from within a diamond or to inversely leave a diamond dull and unattractive.
