Diamond Pricing: Price Comparison Chart
Diamond Pricing
Article Copyright © 2009 AllAboutGemstones.com
The trade in rough diamonds is primarily controlled by a hand-full of companies which use their cartel power to control supply in order to stabilize prices through the Diamond Bourses. For this reason, diamond pricing is relatively consistent. Predictable diamond pricing relies on a rigid adherence to the four quantifiable parameters of the diamond grading system listed below.
Diamonds are separated, graded and valued based on these four characteristics, and this data is detailed in a GIA, AGS, or Sarin Diamond Grading Report.
