JK Diamonds – Best Diamond Grading Institute in India

Which is the best diamond grading institute?

“Cut, Clarity, Carat, Colour”- these are some gemologist jargons you must’ve heard of at jewellery stores and among diamond merchants. Are these factors of diamond grading enough? Let J K Diamonds Institute, a pioneer in diamond grading education break this down for you.

What exactly do these terms mean?

The 4C’s of the diamond ie. cut, carat, colour, and clarity are globally known standards for assessing the quality of diamonds. Top Universities and institutions have accepted these standards of assessment and impart training along these factors. However, diamond grading standards in the market are evaluated on the basis of factors beyond the 4C’s, such as- demand and supply factors, labor cost, changing and ever-evolving technology, regional differences, etc.

So, is it beneficial to enrol for a diamond grading course that limits its teachings to just the 4C’s? 

Go beyond Limitations:

To solve the issue of limitations, J K Diamonds Institute of Gems & Jewelry has introduced the concept of 7Cs and 7S’ to determine the quality as well as the price of diamonds keeping in mind practical market reality. The Institute is a renowned institute pioneering in the field of diamonds, gems & jewellery for over 3 decades. The curriculum and syllabus designed for the diamond grading course is in line with the industry standards and most importantly, market practices.
