IMPORTANT INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW WHEN PURCHASING A BLACK DIAMOND. People in other countries don't have to adhere to the strict rules and guidelines that the US has regarding diamonds. In the US we DO NOT use the letters "AAA" or the word "GRADE" for diamonds. Please be aware that if these words are used it may not be a real black diamond. How can you give it a "grade" if you can't see through it to see what grade it would be? In the US we use a CLARITY system for diamonds that is either IF, VVS, VS, SI, I and the word OPAQUE for black diamonds because you cannot see through the black diamond to give it a clarity. Some countries use the word "diamond" for any gemstone or cz. For example, a black gemstone or cz would be called a black diamond, a red gemstone or cz would be called a red diamond, a green gemstone or cz would be called a green diamond etc. That's the language they use. This is why you see so many gemstones or cz's being called a diamond. In the US we cannot use the word diamond unless it is a real genuine diamond that passes the US rules and guidelines. The word diamond cannot be used for a gemstone or cz. With all this being said, you can now make an informed decision when buying real black diamonds. MAKE SURE TO LOOK IN THE SELLERS LISTING TO SEE IF THE BLACK DIAMOND HAS BEEN COLOR ENHANCED OR TREATED. MY BLACK DIAMONDS ARE NOT COLOR ENHANCED NOR TREATED IN ANY WAY. |
