Hi,
Is there a difference in quality and value due to the origin of the diamond?
(and therefore does the "natural age" of the diamond matter?)
e.g is diamond from africa "better" than diamond from canada or vice versa? (assuming all other factors the same: cut, cutter, clarity etc.....)
If yes, is there a way to know the origin of the diamond that one is about to buy?
I only know that for Canadian diamonds, they use the CanadaMark''s serial number. But for normal GIA, AGS laser inscription, how can you tell?
Thanks.
