Most rare stones will in time increase in value.
When the stability of the economy is in danger, the investor wants to protect its investments from devaluation.
It is a secure investment: formed in millions of years, diamonds are inalterable. Their value is not linked to the value of money. An investment in diamonds does not bring in instant revenue but can add value to the amount of money that is invested.
Diamonds are unalterable
- Diamonds are discreet as they provide the means of keeping the strongest value in the smallest volume and weight (5 carats of diamonds, i.e. one gram, are equivalent to several kilograms of gold)
- Diamonds are likely to increase in value in time over long periods.
- Diamonds do not require any specific management. They are generally kept in a safe place.
- Diamonds are forever beautiful, unique and eternal.
It is therefore advice to buy, in terms of secured value, diamonds of superior quality categories. It is recommended to buy round diamonds, with colors D, E or F with IF or VVS quality and weighing 1 carat or more. For the other criteria (proportion, polish and degree of fluorescence) must of course also be good.
Approximately 20% of mined diamonds are used in jewelry and 80% for industrial uses (such as lasers, drill parts and surgical equipment).
The United States is the biggest consumer of diamonds in the world. It accounts for 35% of diamond sales, Hong Kong 26%, Belgium 15%, Japan 6%, and Israel 4% Israel and Belgium in particular are important diamond-trading hubs thus their consumption numbers are misleading.
