Nonprofit Grading Laboratory Launches ‘Colored Diamond Document,’ Helping Consumers Navigate the Brown Diamond Purchasing Experience
LAS VEGAS (May 14, 2018) —AGS Laboratories—a nonprofit diamond grading laboratory dedicated to consumer protection—announced today that it has expanded its services and is now grading brown diamonds.
AGS Laboratories unveiled the consumer-friendly Colored Diamond Document, a tool that allows jewelers to present the technical aspects and nuances of colored diamond grading to prospective buyers with an easy-to-understand verbiage and graphics.
To the average consumer, purchasing a brown diamond will never be the same. A brown diamond will no longer be described as “a brown diamond,” but will be communicated in easy-to-understand visual way, highlighting the nuances within the diamond’s color.
“Brown diamonds are beautiful, and are an alternative choice to the more traditional colorless diamonds. They are also trending as an affordable choice for fine jewelry,” said Jason Quick, Laboratory Director at AGS Laboratories. “We recognized a growing need in the market and decided to create a tool that will truly enhance consumers’ buying experience.”
AGS Laboratories encourages jewelry buyers who are shopping for diamonds to always ask for a diamond grading report from an independent third-party laboratory so that they can better understand the quality of the diamond they are buying.
