care must be taken with regard
to applying direct heat to the
diamond. Direct application

at auctions@goldia.com.

with our company and appraise
jewelry for some of the most
prestigious and well-known jewelry
and diamond manufacturers across
the world.

10. What
does Clarity Enhanced mean?
Does it wear off with time?
Is it a real diamond?
Why
Buy Clarity Enhanced Diamonds?
Clarity Enhancement
TECHNOLOGY: Every diamond
has internal structural inclusions
created either during the process
of crystallization of the diamond
or during the polishing process.
The clarity enhancement process
is a state-of-the-art technology
that optically eliminates those
internal inclusions in diamonds
and improves their brilliance
and clarity. Simply stated,
the process uses a glass-like
material which adds virtually
no weight to the diamond. It
coats the inside surface of
fractures or 'feathers' in diamonds
with transparent material whose
optical characteristics and
its refractive index are almost
the same as a natural diamond.
The coating masks the fracture
to the naked eyes!
YOU DON'T
NEED TO SETTLE FOR A SMALL DIAMOND.
The extraordinary modern technological
process allows you, the diamond
buyer, to get more affordable
REAL diamonds that look identical
in appearance to natural diamonds
costing much more.
Sales of Clarity Enhanced
Diamonds are growing tremendously.
Today hundreds of thousands
of Clarity Enhanced Diamonds
are in the market. Clarity Enhanced
Diamonds are used for diamond
rings, earrings, pendants, tennis
bracelets and more!
NOW YOU CAN BUY A MUCH LARGER
AND MORE BEAUTIFUL NATURAL DIAMOND
FOR YOUR MONEY THAN EVER BEFORE!
IMPORTANT: proper care guidelines
must be followed so as not to
impair your clarity enhanced
diamond. Heat above 1500 degrees
should not be applied directly
to the stone. Jewelry cleaners
containing acids should not
be applied to the stone.
We guarantee for life our C.E.
Diamonds for breaking, cracking,
enhancement coming out, etc.
11. If
I have less than 10 feedbacks
can I bid?
Please email us at auctions@goldia.com
for approval if you have less
than 10 feedbacks.
12. How
are our prices so good?
We are one of the largest direct
importers of diamonds in the
United States. Our resources,
direct connections, and relationships
with diamond mines in Belgium
and Israel enable us to have
the most competitive prices
available.
13. Can
custom changes be made to existing
rings? Can the ring head be
changed to accommodate a different
size stone?
Most rings can accommodate any
size stone. Please call us at
212-840-6099 if you have specific
questions.
14. How
do I care for my jewelry?
The best way to clean your stone
is to simply apply a little
bit of warm soapy water or use
a non-ammonia based jewelry
cleaner. Ultrasonic cleaning,
steam cleaning or boiling water
are also acceptable cleaning
methods.
Tell your jeweler. When getting
your jewelry sized or having
any modifications done, please
remember to tell your jeweler
that it is an enhanced diamond,
as special precautions must
be taken with regard to the
application of heat and use
of ammonia or other cleaning
acids.
15.
What kind of REPAIR
guarantees do you offer?
We
guarantee that the structure
of their rings will remain in
tact (not need any repairs)
within the first year of its
wear. If any repairs are necessary
this will be done FREE of charge
within the first year. Beyond
this time period, any repairs
(such as tightening a diamond
or loose stones) can be
done but customers will be required
to pay a fee. This fee will
be determined based upon what
procedure needs to be done to
the ring, as repair prices vary
depending on the degree of work
need to fix the problem. If
a problem arises and the ring
needs to be fixed within the
first year of purchase, Outrageous
Auctions will gladly repair
the ring free of charge.
Please
Note:
Most reputable jewelers and
high end jewelry companies state
that every 6 months, due to
normal everyday wear, stones
must be tightened and inspected
by a professional (* see below);
we will guarantee your ring
for DOUBLE this time period.
Protecting
Your Diamond
Even
though diamonds are the hardest
natural substance known to man,
a diamond will scratch another
diamond. So it is important
that jewelry not be stored together
since it can be scratched or
tangled. Also, diamond jewelry
should never be worn while doing
heavy work. Points are vulnerable
to chipping and even everyday
activity can loosen a setting.
This is why it’s important to
visit a professional jeweler
every six months to have your
diamond’s mountings and settings
checked
