OUR SERVICES
EVALUATION
MAXIMISING VALUE, MINIMISING WASTE
Working in complete transparency, confidentiality and understanding with our clients, we offer a truly bespoke evaluation service. Utilising sophisticated equipment such as X-ray scanners and 3D plotters, we
meticulously evaluate rough and polished diamonds of all shapes and quality.
We firstly map the outside of the stone, identifying all the characteristics and indentations. The second stage is to plot all the imperfections inside the diamond. Our experts then determine what combination of polish outcome will bring the maximum achievable value. Depending on the plotted model and taking into account some parameters such as colour and fluorescence, on certain occasions it may be better to choose one large stone or a group of smaller ones at a higher quality level. Commercial considerations also play a role, with some stones being more marketable than others, and allowance for exceptional added value such as key weights, special numbers and matching pairs to further boost the value.
