Loose Diamonds: Find Your Perfect Stone

Loose diamonds refer to diamonds that have not yet been set into fine jewelry pieces. Generally, you can buy loose diamonds easily online and they are much cheaper than diamonds already mounted in rings and other pieces of jewelry. This could be because of the way diamonds must be fitted into a setting, possibly scratching and damaging them and you never really know the extent of that because once its set it is difficult to get the gemstone itself remove and evaluated.

Diamonds that are bought loose have the added benefit of being easily examined by gemologists, jewelers and professional appraisers, considering they can see the gem from every single angle and thus make a more thorough and accurate assessment of it. Both in terms of cost and ease of evaluation, buying diamonds loose seems like the superior option. The only downside is you then have to buy or design the ring bed separately and have it set in for an additional fee at a local store, although it is often said to be worth it as the quality of both can be hand selected to create something outstanding. Additionally, any jeweler that sells diamonds loose will be able to help you in store to use them to create a very fine ring, necklace or other type of fine jewelry piece.
