Looking for a certified diamond?  Well, STOP!!!  Because there is no such thing as a "certified diamond"...  The term "certified diamond" is a false pretense and a concept that is misused and misrepresented by the majority of our industry...  It is incorrectly used to describe diamonds that have been evaluated by independent gemological laboratories such as the GIA, AGSL, EGL, HRD, IGI, CGL, and for which a diamond grading report or diamond profile has been issued...  But in reality those laboratories did not certify the diamond, nor did they certify the quality of the diamond...  They merely produced a document which describes the characteristics of the diamond at the time that they evaluated it...  What do all of those initials stand for?  Good point!  GIA or more correctly the GIA-GTL is an abbreviation for the Gemological Institute of America Gem Trade Laboratory...  AGSL is the American Gem Society Laboratory...  EGL is the European Gemological Laboratory which is a franchise laboratory operating in Israel, New York, and Los Angeles...  Each of the EGL locations is owned and operated by different individuals...  IGI is the Independent Gemmological Institute and CGL is the Central Gem Laboratory...  Our preference of all of these laboratories is the GIA and the AGS because they seem to be the most consistent and accurate...  The GIA and AGS were both started within a year of each other by Robert Shipley in the 1950's.  The initial purpose of the GIA was to provide an educational resource for members of the jewelry and diamond industry.  The initial purpose of the AGS was to provide the jewelry and diamond industry with a standard of morals and ethics for dealing with the general public.  Eventually both organizations branched off and each organization now operates an independent gemological laboratory which provides diamond grading services.  These laboratories are capable of detecting diamond simulants such as cubic zirconia, moissanite, etc. as well as diamond treatments such as clarity enhancement, fracture filling, heat treating and more.
