Diamond appraisal determines the dollar value of a specific diamond. There are four main criterion's used for diamond appraisal commonly known as the "Four C's of diamonds" i.e. carat, color and clarity and cut. The 4 C’s of diamonds helps in evaluating loose diamonds and determining their fair market prices.
The first three C’s i.e. carat, color and clarity are quantifiable and can easily be measured by a gemologist. But, the fourth C i.e. the cut is more difficult to evaluate. But, thanks to the advanced technologies which allow professional diamond cutters to use various mechanisms and techniques to evaluate them. |
