What misconceptions exist about investment diamonds?

In the late 1970’s, fraudulent diamond retailers started contacting investors over the phone whom had recently sold bonds or stocks. They sent sealed packages to interested parties containing loose investment diamonds and their certificates. However, those certificates only remained valid as long as the packaging was sealed. It quickly became apparent why. After further inspection, the diamonds turned out to be gravely below the stipulated value at best, worthless at worst. These types of fraudulent practices tarnished the name of diamond investments everywhere and caused many to think diamonds have no intrinsic value.

In addition to luring investors in with false promises and misplaced trust, one company’s practices could have been quite damaging to the entire diamond industry. De Beers Diamonds Investment, Ltd. turned out to not have any ties to the diamond giant everyone knows but did abuse their name at a time when it was almost synonymous to the diamond industry.

How are things in reality?

Misconceptions such as the aforementioned have long since been debunked. Throughout history, diamonds have always been highly valued. The intrinsic value has thusly been proven time and again, as long as they meet the right criteria. The 4 C’s are very meaningful and easily evaluated throughout the global market, which makes their price easily comparable to the market prices. Moreover, those qualitative features make selling loose diamonds far easier than critics claim. Not only is the current system of certification nigh impossible to counterfeit, they are based on a worldwide consensus about quality requirements.

That consensus subjects the quality characteristics of the different types of diamonds to different types of price evolutions, creating adequate transparency for those ready to sell their loose diamonds.
