OUR GRADING VALUES
“ We are very proud to exclusively grade natural and untreated diamonds ”Jamie Clark - Head of Global Operations, De Beers Institute of Diamonds
Accuracy
Our laboratories make use of market leading instruments and proprietary technology to support our grading and provide the most accurate and consistent diamond appraisals.
Integrity
We ensure the integrity of all our processes by using a 'black box' system where diamonds are distributed in anonymous boxes so that each diamond is appraised fairly according only to its features.
Consistency
We employ some of the world's most experienced graders, who undergo rigorous training, so that they have the knowledge and expertise to evaluate every diamond accurately and consistently, wherever it was mined.
