If you are a serious or even casual gem investor you know that loose diamonds are littered in net and real store page bins, awaiting your inspections amidst finer ads showing elegant net auctions. It is a thrilling time to be a diamond investor and to begin to learn how to operate the computer. Of all color size and hue, gems amidst rocks, some of priceless value waiting to be found, all of interest in dissecting until you as the learner have applied several of your new tools of your trade.
You can look closely and carefully with your small elongated and sophisticated looking loupe, a small hammer and a tony shovel. You are set. Today we will leave the mountain hike up diamond Gulley, and look in at several jewelry stores you know and have in mind. And then we will wend our way around the web and check out what we feel confident to see yet not touch. Money back guarantees would be a must on any deal where you are not standing at the jewelers counter with your gemologist associate along.
If you are fortunate to meet a jeweler or two gemologists who you have learned to trust and build a sense of rapport with, you are fortunate indeed. Purchase diamonds from who you trust, and learn to feel they are competent. Remember most of all is that the cutting determines all. If a cutter tries to cut a corner, so to speak, he may broaden the top plate, but you will learn to be able to see how that can then distort the side of the crown.
You see the crown shrinks down from the girdle of the ring, the widest point around the diamond. At the base is the Cutlet, which may often be jagged and frayed, as it is the bottom of the gem. You need to also take note on how perfectly the stones proportion is. Remember proportion and that a stone's weight sinks it down. And therefore you need to find how te match the right size for the shape and roundness of the stone. The ideal stone has the Crown and Table be the top third of the stone.
The pavilion is the part below the dividing line of the diamond, the Girdle. The ideal gem would have two thirds as Pavilion, topped by one third of glorious Crown and Table.The precision of the cut into the major gem determines its value, and whether foul or fair friend follows this trail. Many a ruby or gemstone was exchanged in ownership around pubs on the Cornwall coasts it is well recorded. It seems a local habit built over the centuries. Evil men would place a false beacon light of safety blazing at dangerous rock outcrops pulling the ship and its crew to their doom.
Main pieces of oxidized minerals are still being retrieved as memories of such treachery.
