Make Us Your Next Gemmology Move | Diamond Screening and Certification

Coloured gemstones on a chess board

We are excited to share our recent investment in five advanced diamond screening devices from the Assure Programme 2.0, which enhances our expertise in diamond screening and certification and supports our commitment to gemmological excellence and transparency.

As a fully equipped Gemmological Laboratory, we recognise that transparency is crucial in today’s marketplace. It is important for you and your customers to know whether a diamond is natural or laboratory-grown. This knowledge empowers you to communicate confidently and build trust. Since the naked eye cannot distinguish between the two, our expert gemmologists use state-of-the-art equipment to deliver precise screening results. As a result, you can provide clear and accurate information, strengthening your customer relationships.

The Importance of diamond screening and certification

Our Gemmology Lab Reports play a key role in building confidence for both buyers and sellers. When you receive diamond certification from Birmingham Assay Office, you gain peace of mind knowing that our team has thoroughly graded and screened each diamond. As a result, you can confidently reassure your customers about the authenticity of their purchase.

Additionally, our operations in the UK ensure we adhere to stringent regulatory standards. This commitment guarantees that our assessments remain trustworthy and reliable. Located in the heart of Birmingham, we can provide rapid service without compromising accuracy, ensuring that we meet your business needs efficiently and professionally.

Assure Programme 2.0

Furthermore, our lab now boasts five cutting-edge devices from the Assure Directory 2.0. This programme rigorously tests and verifies the most reliable diamond screening equipment. Among the 11 devices featured, we invested in DiamondSure, DiamondView, SynthDetect, EXA, and Belize, allowing us to confidently state that we have a fully equipped laboratory. Along with our highly trained gemmologists, these advancements enable us to deliver accurate and reliable diamond assessments every time.
