Even experts without a full set of laboratory equipment find it very difficult to check gemstones for authenticity and classify them correctly. It is even more difficult to determine whether a gemstone has been treated or enhanced, and it is nearly impossible to determine its origin without a laboratory.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Therefore, certificates and grading reports from independent gemological laboratories are important. These certificates specify the unique characteristics and qualities of a gemstone and verify its grading and authenticity.<br \/>\nCertification is of the utmost importance when buying gemstones because it reduces risk, increases the gem&#8217;s value, and is crucial for later resale.<br \/>\nInsurance companies also require a certificate in addition to a commercial invoice to insure a gemstone.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"tng-custom-divider\"><div class=\"tng-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/bildschirmfoto-2020-05-12-um-11.09.04.png\"><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span>Gemstone certification<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<strong>A gemstone certificate contains or proves the following:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gemstone name, e.g. &#8220;ruby&#8221; or &#8220;tanzanite&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Type of mineral, e.g., for a ruby, it would be corundum<\/li>\n<li>A photo of the gemstone<\/li>\n<li>Weight in carats (ct.)<\/li>\n<li>Dimensions in millimeters<\/li>\n<li>Indicate whether it is a natural gemstone or a synthetic one<\/li>\n<li>Color, mostly including saturation<\/li>\n<li>Information on whether the gemstone is its natural color or has been treated (e.g., heat-treated)<\/li>\n<li>nformation on whether the gemstone has been treated in any other way (e.g., fracture-filled, impregnated, irradiated, or diffused)<\/li>\n<li>Optional: confirmation of the gemstone&#8217;s geographic origin<\/li>\n<li>For <strong>diamonds<\/strong>, include additional information on clarity, color grade, fluorescence, and the quality of the cut, symmetry, and polish<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Be careful with &#8220;certificates&#8221; issued by gemstone dealers or jewelers!

Since rubies from Burma fetch higher prices, determining the origin is essential.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The following special remarks about the color can be found in certificates for rubies:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8220;Pigeon&#8217;s blood&#8221;: The most expensive color, it is only given to natural colored rubies and substantially increases the price.<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;Intense\/vivid red&#8221;: this is a gradation to &#8220;pigeon blood&#8221; and also increases the price.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>For blue sapphires, there are two internationally sought-after color grades:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8220;Royal blue&#8221;: This designation, given to a dark blue with high saturation and brilliance, is the most sought after and valuable.<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;Cornflower blue&#8221;: This color grade is also highly valuable. It describes a very pure blue.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The cost of a certificate ranges from around 30 euros at a local institute in countries like India or Sri Lanka to several thousand euros for high-quality, rare gemstones. Thus, the purchase price of the gemstone also influences the type of certificate received when buying a stone. For example, if the stone costs 500 euros, the buyer cannot expect an SSEF or GRS certificate.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]<div class=\"tng-quote-box\"><div class=\"tng-custom-divider\"><div class=\"tng-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/wp-content\/themes\/_tng\/icons\/chat_white.svg\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"inner\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The determination of origin can be ordered extra by the owner of the stone.

Certificates from other labs may lead to significant price reductions when reselling.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, certified diamonds were sealed in plastic boxes. The certification number was on the plastic box, linking the diamond to the certificate. Today, this method is outdated. Now, the certificate number is laser-inscribed on the girdle of the diamond (the thin outer edge) in letters no larger than a few micrometers, making it invisible to the naked eye. This establishes the connection between the diamond and the certificate.<\/p>\n<p>To check if the certificate is genuine, enter the certificate number on the certifying institute&#8217;s website to receive a scan of the certificate. (Of course, ownership data is not public.)<\/p>\n<p>A diamond certificate is considered part of the proof of ownership. In any case, certificates should be kept separate from gemstones.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a note about the types of GIA diamond certificates: If the diamond weighs more than one carat, the &#8220;GIA Diamond Grading Report&#8221; (8.5 x 3.7 inches) is enclosed. If the diamond weighs less than one carat, the &#8220;GIA Diamond Dossier&#8221; measures 12.8 by 9.3 centimeters.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The contents are indicated in the diamond certificate:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Certificate number<\/li>\n<li>Cut (brilliant, emerald, oval or princess cut, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Diamond dimension to the nearest hundredth of a millimeter<\/li>\n<li>Weight in carats to the nearest hundredth of a carat<\/li>\n<li>Color grade from D to Z<\/li>\n<li>Clarity grade from FL to P3<\/li>\n<li>Cut grade from &#8220;excellent&#8221; to &#8220;poor&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Polish from &#8220;excellent&#8221; to &#8220;poor&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Symmetry from &#8220;excellent&#8221; to &#8220;poor&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Fluorescence ranges from &#8220;none&#8221; to &#8220;strong&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Other characteristics of the diamond<\/li>\n<li>A profile of the cut<\/li>\n<li>For diamonds heavier than one carat, a schematic representation of the inclusions is also provided, if applicable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Most certificates omit a photo of a white diamond because it would not provide much information; the above parameters are more important.<\/p>\n<p>Usually, all white diamonds of good quality weighing 0.33 carats or more are certified. If the weight is less than that and the buyer wants a certificate, they will be charged separately for it.<\/p>\n<p>For colored &#8220;fancy diamonds,&#8221; the color is not mentioned on the D-Z scale, but rather, the corresponding color designations are used (e.g., &#8220;fancy intense yellow&#8221;). All other information remains the same. GIA certificates for colored diamonds (GIA Colored Diamond Identification and Origin Report) are always 21.6 x 9.3 cm.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to be certain that a gemstones is genuine?
