Hallmarking & Certification

When purchasing a diamond, certification and hallmarking provide proof of its authenticity, quality, and value. At Diamonds of Deal, we only offer IGI-certified and hallmarked diamonds, ensuring exceptional craftsmanship and reliability.

What is Hallmarking?

Hallmarking is the process of verifying the purity of precious metals used in jewellery, including gold, platinum, and silver. It involves an official stamp or mark that guarantees the metal's quality, providing peace of mind for buyers. This stamp is typically applied by an authorized assay office and confirms the metal's weight, purity, and authenticity. For gold jewellery, the hallmark ensures that the metal meets the specified standard, such as 9K, 14K, 18K, or 24K gold, providing transparency in every piece we offer.

What is
Diamond Certification?

Diamond certification is a detailed report provided by a reputable gemological laboratory, such as the International Gemological Institute (IGI). This report provides an in-depth analysis of a diamond's quality, ensuring transparency and reliability in your purchase. 

 

IGI (International Gemological Institute): IGI is one of the most respected and trusted diamond grading organizations in the world. Their certificates provide a clear, impartial assessment of a diamond's characteristics and quality, ensuring that you are receiving the diamond’s true value.

Why certification matters

Assurance of Quality: A certificate from a reputable organization guarantees that the diamond has been carefully examined by experts and meets the required standards.
 

Transparency: Certification provides detailed information about the diamond, so you can make an informed decision.
 

Value Protection: When you buy a certified diamond, you know that the price reflects the stone's true quality. In case of resale, the certificate ensures the diamond's value is preserved.
 

Confidence in Your Purchase: Knowing that your diamond is certified and hallmarked gives you peace of mind, making it easier to trust that you're getting the best value for your investment.
