MakeUMoan asked:


Why is there such a substancial markup in price for diamonds certified by expert organizations? Is a non-certified not a real diamond? Is a certified diamond worth the extra cost involved in purchasing it? Are the qualities of a non-certified diamond (clarity, cut, color, etc.) identifiable if no expert organization or gemologists has given it a certification?

Alexa asked:


What is the name of a diamond cut that is similar to a marquis, but instead of points on the top and bottom, it’s flat? I can’t find it anywhere on the internet and I’m trying to figure out what type of cut the stone i have is.
Picture a marquis, but the points on top and bottom are slightly flattened. The middle section is a little wider and slightly pointed. Maybe this is just an unusual fancy cut?
