ABOUT GIA LASER INSCRIPTION
When purchasing diamonds, it's only natural that you want to gather as much information as possible before finalizing your purchase. A GIA laser inscription is one of the key elements that can help you obtain the necessary data.
What exactly is a GIA laser inscription?
A GIA laser inscription is a micro-laser inscription that has been applied to the girdle of a diamond. The microscopic engraving does not affect the appearance of the diamond and is linked to the GIA Diamond Grading Report, a universally adopted system to verify the caliber and quality of the diamond.
A GIA laser inscription adds a unique GIA number that is specifically linked to the particular diamond and can be used to perform a GIA report check to retrieve relevant data about the diamond. This includes everything from the 4 Cs to the polish, symmetry, and date of official grading. The information can be highly beneficial when searching for the best diamond that your budget can afford, as it confirms details like blemishes that may not be visible to the naked eye. It is also a useful tool for proving ownership at a later date.
The GIA (Gemological Institute of America) is an independent governing body that produced the world’s first internationally accepted Diamond Grading System. A GIA report can be arranged for any diamond and will analyze it in detail to grade key features such as distinguishing features and characteristics, such as inclusions, as well as each of the 4Cs - carat, color, clarity, and cut. Once the information has been stored, it can be accessed via a GIA report check completed through the online registry database.
After completing this process, the GIA laser inscription number and additional grading information can be found by consulting your diamond grading report.
How to get a GIA laser inscription?
While a GIA certification process does not include a GIA laser inscription as standard, the laser engraving can be added to the thin, outer edge of the diamond for a small fee at the time of grading. This instantly confirms that the diamond is what it claims to be while also providing instant access to a detailed report regarding all key features of the diamond.
GIA laser inscriptions also offer the opportunity (if desired) for you to display a short message on the diamond. This could be the name, date of an anniversary, or a loving message to your partner. GIA certificates can be arranged for loose diamonds or diamonds that are already featured in rings, earrings, and other jewelry. An official Diamond Grading Report can be used for any diamond over 2.0 carats while a Diamond Dossier is used for any weighing 1.99 carats or lower.
While there are several ways to access the GIA grading and GIA laser inscription service, the easiest and safest route is to complete it via a reputable jeweler like Reve Diamonds. As well as handling all arrangements on your behalf, we work closely with the officials, which often leads to a speedy turnaround. We can also provide GIA data for many of the diamonds we sell.
