I am new to this forum - please excuse me if my questions have been answered before.
I recently acquired a wedding ring and band set that may have been reset in the late 1950's. The center diamond is a 1.25+ carat diamond and have bee told that this diamond is "old european cut" approx., 100 years old. I may want to reset it again, but I need to have it appraised.
Questions:
Should I send it to one of the 3 diamond labs? Which would you recommend - GIA, AGS, EGL?
Should I not send it to one of the labs, but take it to an independent appraiser who has achieved certification from one of the above labs.
Any advise is much appreciated.
