It Is Wise To Purchase Wholesale Diamonds

By Dennis Artling


Many individuals wish to purchase precious gemstones, but find that they are financially out of reach. For such consumers, wholesale diamonds may be a viable option. The most reputable wholesalers guarantee high quality, certified stones.

The price of the merchandise is the primary difference between retailers and wholesalers. High-quality stones can be bought from either type of outlet. The cheaper prices offered by wholesalers are usually due to the fact that their stock is purchased in bulk. Wholesale stones are not certified in some cases, however.

Purchasing such gems from a wholesaler does not mean that quality must be sacrificed. Due to the aforementioned certification considerations, one should be cautious if the wholesaler does not offer a guarantee. Just because the stone is not certified, however, does not mean it is poor quality.

The number of carats the stone features, as well as its shape are the first two considerations to which one must give thought. Not surprisingly, the diamond's shape is a matter of personal preference, and will depend on how much brilliance the purchaser desires. The number of carats, of course, will depend on the shopper's budget.

Clarity and color are the other two characteristics one must consider when purchasing gemstones of this type. Colorless diamonds are regarded as the most valuable, but some individuals prefer colored stones. It is possible to buy a diamond in pink, yellow, or blue.

Certification involves grading the quality of each individual stone. As mentioned above, wholesale diamonds may or may not come with certification. If a person purchases the stones from a reliable merchant, he or she can always have them appraised at a later time, and acquire a document of authenticity. It is also wise for one to consider purchasing insurance for the stones. Regardless of one's personal preferences, obtaining such stones as an investment or to be made into jewelry is a worthwhile endeavor.
