Diamonds from the treated diamond process
These are diamonds that have been remade from the original poor quality diamonds, whether it is the color, cut, flaws, or other characteristics. This process will help improve and repair the diamond and gems to be perfect and new according to market demand.
The quality improvement process often used in diamonds and gems
1. Crack filling
This is a process that is often used in cases where the diamond has a crack by adding chemicals with a refractive index close to that of the diamond. This filling is done in a vacuum to remove the air from the crack. Then, molten glass is inserted into the crack.
2. Using a laser
to remove the black inclusions inside, then bleaching them again.
3. Irradiation
to get the desired colors.
4. Color coating to make the diamond whiter.
However, diamonds that have gone through the coating process can peel off, which may cause scratches later.
5. Burning to make the diamond whiter than the original yellow or brown color.
Advantages of treated diamonds
1. Cheap compared to the beauty of the workpiece
Because it is a process of renovating gems that do not meet market demand, the price of that gem will be much cheaper than gems with the same characteristics but not undergone the renovating process.
2. Suitable for buyers of jewelry for short-term wear
Currently, diamond quality improvement technology has been developed, allowing diamonds to be modified to meet the aesthetic needs of buyers in the market. Buyers have more options in terms of color intensity, clarity, and crystal characteristics of diamonds through the selection of treated diamonds.
Disadvantages of treated diamonds
1. Not suitable for further investment for speculation
Although they are as beautiful as untreated diamonds, it must be admitted that currently in the diamond and gemstone market, the price and bargaining power of sellers of treated diamonds are still at a great disadvantage. They are also less reliable in the market.
2. Easily broken and more likely to change condition
In some renovating processes that manufacturers choose to use to improve quality, such as burning and coating, the crystal structure will change significantly, resulting in brittleness and easy breakage. The hardness also changes, making it easy to scratch or hit.
How to check if it is a diamond that has undergone the renovating process
1. Look at the details of the diamond quality certificate from a reliable institution, such as the GIA.
A diamond quality certificate or diamond certificate will help you know the type of quality improvement process if it has gone through such a process. The details will be stated in the comment of the certificate.
