How Are Loose Diamonds Valued at a Pawn & Jewelry Store? | Who Buys Diamonds
When we buy diamond jewelry, we look at a variety of different things. For example, sometimes, we're able to pay higher prices for high-demand designer pieces. We look at the precious metals that make up the jewelry, as well as other factors. Of course, all of this is in addition to the value of the diamond.
When we're buying loose diamonds, obviously, all we look at is the diamond's value. This isn't necessarily a bad thing...after all, with a lot of diamond jewelry, the majority of the value of the jewelry is based on the diamond (or diamonds) that are set in the piece.
So, what do we do to determine the value of a diamond? For one thing, believe it or not, we look at the shape of the diamond. This is because different diamond cuts have different values. Round diamonds are more expensive to cut and are also the most popular diamonds on the planet, so naturally, they are worth more money.
Of course, diamond shape isn't the only thing we look at. Another thing we look at is the carat size of the diamond. Carat weight heavily impacts how much a diamond is worth. Larger diamonds are obviously worth more money than smaller diamonds in most cases. However, don't assume you won't get paid much for your smaller diamonds...even small diamonds can have a high retail value, and we always offer competitive prices on diamonds of all sizes.
Color is another thing we consider when we're valuing diamonds. You might assume all colorless diamonds are the same. This is not true. Diamonds that are of a higher quality are much more clear. Lower-quality diamonds are tinted more of a yellow color.
Lastly, we consider clarity. If you aren't familiar with a jewelry industry, you might not know what this means. Basically, it refers to how many (or how few) inclusions or imperfections on the inside or outside of the diamond. Some of these imperfections aren't easily seen with the naked eye. However, they do impact the value of a diamond.
