GIA

The surest guarantee of a quality diamond.

It is highly recommended to buy a diamond with an independent grading
report or certificate.

Grading reports do not give a value like appraisals do. Instead an independent expert opinion is provided on the quality of loose or unset gems. Most grading institutes support worldwide labs or services and do not sell diamonds.

Each lab will grade diamonds slightly different. Samuel Kleinberg prefers GIA and AGS labs for certifying its diamonds.

GIA
Unaffiliated with any retailer, wholesaler, or manufacturer, GIA provides impartial diamond analysis. GIA’s procedures are designed to achieve utmost accuracy. Each diamond is inspected by renowned diamond graders and gemologists. Reports detail an assessment of the 4Cs – colour, clarity, cut, and carat weight. In addition, grading reports contain a hologram, security screen, and microprint lines, as well as bonus security features that exceed industry requirements.
