What Types of Diamond Jewelry We Buy

We accept almost any diamond item, regardless of condition:

  • Engagement / solitaire rings
  • Wedding / anniversary bands with diamond accents
  • Diamond pendants, necklaces, bracelets
  • Diamond stud or drop earrings
  • Estate or vintage diamond pieces
  • Loose diamonds (certified or uncertified)
  • Diamond jewelry with gemstone accents (provided the diamond portion is significant)

Even if your piece is damaged, outdated, or missing parts, bring it in — our experts can often still buy it or offer part value.

Tips to Prepare Your Diamond Jewelry Before Appraisal

  • Clean your pieces gently (use mild soap, warm water, soft brush)
  • Gather any certificates, previous appraisals, or receipts
  • Note details like total carat weight, diamond count, metal type
  • Bring both sides to us (even if it’s a single earring)
  • Be transparent about condition and damage

How We Evaluate Diamond Jewelry

We use a multi-step process to ensure fair and accurate offer. Here is how we typically assess your diamond items:

  1. Visual inspection & authenticity check We verify that your diamond is natural (vs. simulated or synthetic) using gemological tools.
  2. Assess the 4 Cs
    • Cut / Shape — Ideal, round, princess, emerald, etc.
    • Color grade — From D (colorless) to Z (light color)
    • Clarity grade — Inclusions / blemishes
    • Carat weight — The size of the diamond
  3. Certificate / Grading Report (if available) If your diamond comes with a GIA, IGI, or other recognized certificate, that adds credibility and may increase value.
  4. Mounting / Metal & Setting The type of metal (platinum, gold, etc.), craftsmanship, and condition of the setting can contribute some value.
  5. Market Conditions We factor in current diamond market demand, wholesale resale potential, and local supply.
  6. Offer Calculation & Presentation We explain our offer step by step to you, and you decide whether to accept.

Typically 10-25 minutes, depending on the complexity and number of pieces.
