I would‘ve asked,”How many certified diamonds do you have?” but I don’t want to get kicked off PS. :lol-2:

Just curious. Earth grown or lab grown, GIA/IGI/AGS/EGL, I don’t care, but only count diamonds that have their own individual report.

Just the one, HRD certified and it was selected in person and purchased in Amsterdam over 15 years ago.

Everything non-melee sized comes with a GIA memo with the exception of family heirloom earrings and one vintage ring (comes with David Atlas appraisal).

C. 1975 I bought a $75 (crappy) diamond ring at a pawn shop with no grading report.

Every diamond I've bought since has a report from GIA or AGS.

I have one wee GIA oval I bought myself for my 25th last year...
0.46 ct K... please it was all I could/can afford... LOL! I love her though + still unset.

Fingers crossed the future holds many more diamonds-with-lab-reports for me... :lol-2:

Only 2 have GIA, and I'm planning on getting at least 2 more done by GIA in the near future now that I've had them unset. But my biggest stones don't have reports. One I don't plan to sell, but would have a report done prior to selling if I ever do, and the other is bezel-set so I would not want to remove it for grading, but has good online provenance for any future buyer.

Awesome. Would love to see your colored diamonds.

Fist bump on small stones. The mean average of my certified diamonds is 0.68 carat.

One diamond; one GIA report from the last century (pre-dating the cut-quality era -- back when we consumers were blissfully ignorant and happy!)

Thank you...and small things can be beautiful too!

The FCDs were a recent impulse buy and surprise find. I forget not everyone frequents the CS forum (as I don't frequent the diamond or smtb forums...too much temptation)

That's quite a deal on those pinks, and the yellow oranges are lovely too.

Just the FCD in my profile picture. I think it's by IGI, from Liebish
Ering stone was given to DH by his grandmother, no paperwork.
I have the original receipt to mom's ring, no lab report
Earrings were gifts, no paperwork
