Every diamond and/or ring that is sold by Whiteflash.com is primarily inspected by our in-house expert. In addition,
every loose diamond and/or
diamond ring is personally
inspected by an independent appraiser who issues a signed Letter of Verification confirming:
- The weight/color/clarity of the diamond and that all measurements match the original grading document from AGS,
GIA or EGL.
- Laser inscriptions (where they apply).
- Setting details.
- Approximate retail replacement value.
This Letter of Verification accompanies your purchase, confirming the contents of your package and ensuring your secure shopping experience.
AGS Certified Diamonds
AGS diamonds are graded on the American Gem Society's 0-10 scale. An ideal AGS diamond is a 0, and the diamond of the lowest quality is graded a 10. An AGS diamond grading report provides the laboratory’s opinion on a loose diamond's quality. It is different from an appraisal in that it does not provide information on the worth of the gem.
GIA Certified Diamonds
GIA diamonds are graded on the Gemological Institute of America’s 5-tiered scale. An Excellent GIA diamond is their top grade, and the diamond of the lowest quality is graded Poor. A GIA diamond grading report provides the laboratory’s opinion on the loose diamond's quality. It is different from an appraisal in that it does not provide information on the worth of the gem. |
