DIAMOND AND JEWELLERY GRADING PROCESS
1. Register and submit diamonds or jewellery
Your diamonds and jewellery will be in the best hands.
When buying diamonds and jewellery, it is in your best interest that they are graded impartially and objectively. At HRD Antwerp, we are committed to offering you transparency about your diamonds and jewellery.
2. Examination process
Each stone is thoroughly examined.
When submitted in our lab, your diamonds and jewellery will be thoroughly examined by our expert graders. All the diamonds in your jewellery undergo a thorough check to identify them to be natural, lab grown or imitation stones.
3. Issuing an HRD Antwerp Grading Report
You will receive a professional analysis.
The grading results of your diamonds and jewellery are printed on highly secure grading reports. Each report contains the grading results of your diamond, namely the 4Cs: carat, colour, clarity and cut. In addition to the 4Cs, our jewellery grading reports also enlist additional details, including the metal purity and setting style of your jewellery.
