Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept diamonds that do not have a certificate?
like GIA or EGL is helpful, our experts use advanced on-site testing equipment to accurately assess the 4Cs (Cut, Colour, Clarity, and Carat) and provide a fair market-related offer regardless of paperwork.
How does the valuation process work for my diamonds?
The process begins with you submitting details and photos via our website for an initial estimate. If you accept the estimate, we schedule a private consultation at our Green Point office where we perform a meticulous physical inspection to confirm the quality and provide a final, formal offer.
Is the selling process private and secure?
Security and privacy are our top priorities. We operate strictly by appointment only at our secure Cape Town city office. This ensures you have a private, stress-free environment to discuss your valuation and complete the transaction without the risks associated with public retail spaces.
What if my diamond is set in a piece of jewellery?
We evaluate the piece as a whole. Our team assesses both the quality of the diamond and the precious metal (gold or platinum) it is set in. All items we buy are filtered back into the jewellery industry for reuse, supporting a sustainable and eco-friendly industry balance.
