THE TRUTH ABOUT DIAMONDS |
Magazine ads want us to believe that diamonds are the only perfect gift to express love. If you are planning to buy a diamond because you like the way it looks or because it makes you or a loved one happy, by all means, enjoy it.
If you plan to buy a diamond solely for investment purposes, you will need to do a lot of research to determine if it is a good idea.
When diamonds are cut correctly they enhance any piece of jewellery. They look amazing, and when
the sun hits them, they shine like little suns. If you are planning to buy a diamond, the old adage that buyers beware has never been truer. If you are not a trained jeweller, you will not have the ability to determine whether the quality of the diamond matches its purchase price. In fact, even a trained jeweller cannot tell whether the stone in question is a natural stone or a man-made stone without any expensive equipment.
