De Beers taps into polished diamonds market with first-time auction
Anglo America - De Beers
Anglo American’s De Beers, the
world’s largest rough diamond producer by value, has decided to begin
selling its own polished diamonds in auctions for the first time in its
history.
The pilot auction, scheduled for June, will include a wide range of polished stones manufactured directly from the company’s own rough diamonds.
"The pilot auction, scheduled for June 29, will include a wide range of polished stones manufactured directly from De Beer's own rough diamonds." All the polished rocks will carry grading reports from both the International Institute of Diamond Grading & Research (IIDGR) — De Beers’ in-house grading unit — and the Gemological Institute of America (GIA).
“We are interested in testing the level of demand from polished buyers for diamonds that have a clear and attractive source of origin, and that offer the assurance of product integrity that dual certification provides,” Neil Ventura, the miner’s executive vice president of auction sales, said in the statement.
If successful, the process would provide De Beers with more insight into the polished market, while also helping consumers fill gaps in supply or inventory if they were unable to find goods at the company’s rough auctions, he added.
All registered De Beers auction buyers will be eligible to bid in the first sale, which takes place on June 29.

US Wobble Takes Shine off Pandora Sales
Pandora jewellery
Pandora reported strong growth in
the first quarter, but US store closures and sluggish mall traffic
dented its performance stateside.
Global sales jumped 9% year on year to $756.9 million (DKK 5.16 billion), while net profit increased 4% to $199.7 million, the Denmark-based volume jeweler reported Tuesday.
The rise was mainly due to a 46% surge in revenue at Pandora-owned concept stores, which came to $270.4 million, driven by an increase in the number of stores. In the US, revenue fell 7%, or 10% in local currency.
While the company added a net 21 concept stores in the US in the past year, it closed about 600 other points of sale in the fourth quarter of 2016 and suffered from a decline in mall traffic, the retailer explained.
A one-off shipment to Signet Jewelers-owned brand Jared a year earlier also had an impact on the sales decline. “The retail climate in the US remains difficult, which was reflected in our performance in the US for the quarter,” said Pandora CEO Anders Colding Friis.

Oval cut diamond engagement ring
1.02 D colour Vs2 Oval brilliant cut diamond, set in a four claw 18K white gold hand made ring. A Future Classic !
From: DCLA Diamonds
The Four Excellents Of Diamonds
Proportion or Cut is considered the most important
characteristic of a diamond as it has the biggest effect on the light
performance and brilliance. But this is not the only important
characteristic.
At the DCLA Laboratory, Proportion is graded along side Symmetry, polish and importantly the Transparency. This is why DCLA Diamond Exchange Four Ex Diamonds are the most sought after for those who want the finest diamonds available.
To ensure the highest quality, DCLA works with the finest rough diamond producers from South Africa, Antwerp,Israel and India.
Each diamond is then meticulously analysed by our Laboratory diamond gemologists, who along with sophisticated laboratory equipment analyse every aspect of the individual stone, including the all important proportions that will produce the most brilliance.
The DCLA Transparency Grade is the degree to which a diamond transmits light, directly relevant to its ‘cloudiness’ or ‘haziness.’
In other words, it is a comprehensive assessment of light performance based on the quality of the diamond crystal itself.

Proportions
Proportions affect how light travels within the diamond. Diamonds that are cut too shallow and wide, or too deep and narrow lose light out the sides or bottom, causing the diamond to lose brilliance. DCLA selected Diamonds are cut to perfect proportions, allowing the diamond to reflect the maximum amount of light a diamond can produce.Symmetry
The alignment of a diamond's facets in relation to each other or opposing facets affects the diamonds light performance. Facets which are symmetrical and aligned, reflect light directly back to your eye. Symmetry grading to DCLA standards ensure its brilliance and fire is emitted evenly.Certification
All DCLA Diamond Exchange diamonds are certified by DCLA or GIA This provides you an authoritative analysis of your diamond. DCLA also verifies that your diamond meets all the specific quality requirements and checks the diamond is cold laser inscribed.Transparency
Transparency, also called pellucidity, is the material property of allowing light to pass through. In mineralogy, another term for this property is diaphaneity.The DCLA Transparency Grade is the degree to which a diamond transmits light, directly relevant to its ‘cloudiness’ or ‘haziness.’
In other words, it is a comprehensive assessment of light performance based on the quality of the diamond crystal itself.
Laser inscription
Every DCLA Diamond Exchange stone can be registered to the owner
