• The diamond has a certificate (it is also called a report) one of the most world famous and reliable gemological laboratories (GIA, EGL or IGL). This document is a guarantee that the characteristics of the stone indicated by the seller are true.

• At a faceted enterprise, unlike a store, you can choose one diamond from many with similar characteristics, as well as independently examine it carefully with using special equipment. You yourself will protect yourself from buying a stone with polishing defects, scratches, small cracks or chips. Indeed, even at first glance, a minor defect significantly affects the value of a diamond. And in a jewelry store they can sell you jewelry with a stone, the flaws of which were hidden by an experienced jeweler by means of fastening.

Despite these obvious advantages, buy a diamond in Israel < / em> directly on the diamond exchange is not so simple, and there are a number of reasons for this. A diamond business is a closed business, diamond offices are wary of strangers for security reasons and are unlikely to deal with an unfamiliar, single client, all the more there is no guarantee that the transaction will be completed at all. There is also a restriction on the purchase budget, given the average diamond office margin, which is about 5-7% of the diamond value, transactions worth less than $ 1000 are not of commercial interest. The retail purchase of small diamonds weighing up to 0.40 carats is hardly feasible in practice, due to the lack of economic interest from the seller. It will also be quite problematic to make jewelry with very small diamonds in a short time, due to the large amount of work and small profit. Due to its legal status, diamond purchases within the exchange are not subject to VAT, so the tourist avoids worries in advance with his return at the airport.

The dealer’s task is to find out the client’s preferences, consult on possible options, select diamonds and explain Pros and cons in a particular stone. A gemologist consultant provides a certificate from an independent gemological laboratory, or provides an expert opinion on a diamond. Finding a large number of diamonds of similar quality characteristics is a lengthy procedure, so it is recommended to contact us in advance and make a reservation.
