How Much Is My Diamond Jewelry Worth?

This is the most asked question from our customers when selling their diamond jewelry. The value of a diamond is primarily determined by:

  • Carat Weight: The weight of the diamond
  • Color Grade: A wide ranging scale of colors affect prices
  • Clarity Grade: The clearer the diamond, the more expensive it is
  • Shape: Round diamonds are worth more money than fancy shapes such as Princess or Emerald cuts, for example
  • Cut Grade: How well your diamond reflects light and sparkles (round diamonds only)
  • Brand: Luxury brands such as Cartier, Bvlgari, Tiffany & Co. and more add value

To determine how much your diamond jewelry is worth we need to see the diamond and expertly determine all of these factors. Click the button below to get your bespoke price quote from our experts.

Do You Buy The Precious Metal The Diamond Is Set In?

Yes. We will pay you an extremely competitive price for the gold/platinum and it will be included in our offer to you.

Will You Take The Diamond Out Of My Ring?

To confirm the grade of the diamond, we seldom need to, but we ALWAYS ask the permission of our clients to remove the diamond from the ring in special circumstances. We ALWAYS provide you with pricing scenarios prior to removal.

All diamonds will be returned to their settings by highly trained jewelers if we need to return your stone.

What If I Don’t Know What Type Of Diamond I Have?

If you have a grading certificate or appraisal or even the original receipt from the jeweler, it may contain some pertinent information.

If you do not have any information on your diamond jewelry at all, call us on 646 758 0270 or email selling@mygemma.com to discuss your options.
