The Gold ATM and the Art of Diamond Buying

Evaluation of a diamond isn’t all about its size. There’s a lot more to it, an entire complex art. Diamonds are not just shiny pieces of compressed carbon that were subjected to incredibly high temperatures. There’s so much more to them. Each diamond has its own value because there are so many factors that affect it. That’s where The Gold ATM steps in. They are diamond experts who made an art out of evaluating and purchasing these precious gems.

So, which factors are the most important for diamond evaluation?

The 4 C’s of diamond quality:

1. Carat weight – This refers to the weight of this precious stone. One carat is 200 milligrams.
2. Cut grade – Diamonds are so popular because they sparkle with a unique intensity. The cut grade is all about workmanship – the better and more even the facets, the more it sparkles.
3. Color grade – From D to Z diamonds are graded by color. Less color means a higher value. D graded diamonds are absolutely colorless, and of course, the most valuable ones, while Z graded ones have the most color and the least value.
4. Clarity grade – When a diamond is natural, it can have internal characteristics – inclusions, and external ones – blemishes. The closer a diamond comes to being completely pure, the more valuable it is.
