With customers becoming so interested in
understanding the details of every product
before making a purchase, a diamonds 4Cs are not
providing them with sufficient information. In
fact, the issue of inconsistency in diamond
grading has long been a curse in the diamond
industry. One single diamond presented at
different gem labs can bring different 4C
gradings can you believe that!? So, whats the
problem?
The international 4C grading system for diamonds
was first introduced in the 1950s and ever
since, since the past 70 years, this has been the
basic grading system for diamonds used by all
wholesalers, retailers, and consumers alike. The
4Cs Cut, Colour, Clarity, and Carat provide
the value and rarity of a diamond. However, each
element of the four differs to play a role when
combined with one another. Thus, there is no
specific definition of the four elements to
determine a diamonds perfect value. Hence, the
entire grading system becomes complicated.

Diamond grading Then Now You would be
surprised to know that more than 140 million
carats of rough diamonds are mined every year!
And, what is more surprising is that only half of
these are worth being polished and sold as
diamonds! Earlier, the grading of diamonds was
traditionally carried out manually by experienced
gemologists to inspect the inventory using
visual aids and then, with the help of standard
4C grading charts, they would decide the
diamonds grades in each category, providing a
solid and accurate analysis for the diamonds
grading. However, things have changed now,
making it difficult to standardize and accurately
determine the quality of every single diamond,
with millions of diamonds being mined each year.
After all, people are not machines. Thus, to
grade all these huge number of diamonds, certain
machineries are used today. What role does
Artificial Intelligence play? The advent of
Artificial Intelligence is likely to change the
reality of the diamond industry, as machines are
now capable to inspect a diamond based on various
parameters, and also provide only more accurate,
time efficient, and cost efficient results, as
compared to its human counterpart. With such
accuracy and efficiency, there has seen to be a
huge breakthrough in grading using Artificial
Intelligence, and this is only believed to
continually develop. Such Artificial Intelligence
based and automated diamond grading has been
seen since 2016 when the worlds first
technology of diamond grading was launched. These
technologies are based on machine learning. The
more diamonds that are scanned and graded by
machineries, the more knowledge they accumulate,
thus making the algorithm-based methodology even
more sophisticated. In turn, the grading outputs
become more and more accurate and consistent,
enabling standardized and ever-improving grading
results. However, this does not mean that
Artificial Intelligence grading technologies
will completely replace gemologists, but in fact
both of them will work together to bring about a
provable consistent and objective approach to
diamond grading. So, make sure to find and
purchase only genuine 4C standardized diamonds
the next time you wish to make such a purchase.
And, if you arent too sure, you can always make
a purchase from Aura Jewels, the best diamond
jewellery shop in Bangalore, where you are
