All you need to know about Diamond shopping!

Here are the C’s that you should look for when buying a diamond.



Cut – 
Optical Properties define the beauty of a diamond.



 Clarity – The presence or absence of inclusions determine the clarity.



Color – It’s not about the color, it’s about the Lack of it.



Carat weight – Carats is how weight of diamonds and gemstones are measured.


Certification – Put your trust in Certificates; accept only renowned and unbiased IGI or GIA certificates.


Comparison - We want you to shop at Caratstyle but we also want you to know what we are selling is the best, so look in a lot of places before making the buy. 

The diamond purchasing checklist…


Do your homeworkBe prepared and know what is it that you are looking for, it’s okay to browse through and then select but at least have an idea of what you are looking for because you absolutely do not want to end up with the wrong diamond.

Buy from a certified jeweller only You obviously do not want to be duped, go only to a certified jeweler selling precious jewellery and providing appropriate certificates for them.
Take your timeInvesting in a diamond is not something you’d do every day so decide carefully. 
Invest in the stone The quality or the value of the stone itself never diminishes, the setting or design trends will change but the stone is constant. Buy something you know you can still flaunt a couple years down the line.
Set a Budget While it’s good to check out everything out there make sure you know what your requirements are.  Set a budget and keep it lower than your final number so if you have to, you could splurge.
Know the importance of certification Only accept certified jewellery and certificates from acclaimed laboratories like IGI and GIA, remember that the gold your Diamond is set on should be BIS hallmarked too.
Compare, Compare and Compare Before you purchase the diamond make sure you compare other jewelers and similar designs elsewhere
