    How To Sell Sapphires And Sapphire Jewelry

    Matt Cacioppo -February 28, 2023

    How To Sell Sapphire Jewelry

     

    Sapphires are a thing of beauty that everyone wants to possess, and why wouldn't they? These sparkling blue, pink, yellow, and other colored gemstones are one of the most valuable and sought-after gemstones in the world. They are a popular choice for both fine jewelry and investment purposes. However, valuing sapphires can be a complex and nuanced process that requires a thorough understanding of several key factors.

     

    In addition to these factors, the market demand for sapphires can also play a role in determining their value. If there is a high demand for a particular color or type of sapphire, the price may be driven up due to limited supply.

     

    To accurately value a sapphire, it is recommended to consult with a certified gemologist or appraiser who can examine the stone and take into account all of these factors. They can provide a professional appraisal that takes into account the unique characteristics of the individual sapphire, as well as current market

    How To Sell A Fancy Colored Diamond Succesfully

    Matt Cacioppo -February 24, 2023

    How To Sell A Fancy Colored Diamond Successfully

     

    Selling a fancy colored diamond can be a challenging experience. It is important to understand the value of your diamond and the current market trends before putting it up for sale. Here are some tips on how to sell your diamond successfully.

     

    1. Get a diamond appraisal if you don't already have a diamond certificate from the GIA or AGS: The first step in selling your fancy colored diamond is to get it appraised by a reputable gemologist or jeweler. They will assess the diamond's quality, rarity, and market value to give you an estimate of its worth. This will help you set a realistic price and negotiate with potential buyers.

     

    2. Consider selling through a diamond dealer: Selling your diamond through a diamond dealer is an easy and safe option. They have a wide network of potential buyers and can help you get the best price for your diamond. Look for a reputable dealer such as White Pine Wholesale that is experienced in buying and selling

    Matt Cacioppo -February 08, 2023

     

    4 Tips To Receive The Highest Price for Your Melee Diamonds

     

    Bill Norton, our Vice President Of Diamond Operations has over 25 years experience in the recycled diamond industry. He has a wealth of knowledge in diamond purchasing and sales, so we asked him to share his tips on how to maximize the value of melee when you come to sell all or part of your diamond inventory. 

     

    1. Clean Your Diamonds

    Cleaning makes it easier to determine, the color and clarities of your stock. Boiling diamonds in acid works best. If boiling is not an option, you can simply get a bowl of warm/hot water and household detergent, then scrub, removing any dirt or build up that may have accumulated. 

     

    2. Separate Out Fancy Shapes

    Round and fancy shapes have different price points and different markets, so its important to separate these out and bag similar shaped stones. This way you will get a specific offer rather than an offer on a mixed assortment. Generally when selling melee of like size and quality, rounds
