AGS Diamond Lab To Unveil New Cut Grade For Princess Cuts.
AGS (American Gem Society) one of the diamond top grading labs in the world plans to introduce their new Cut Grading System for Princess Cut Diamonds by June 2005. There are no clear Cut grade systems for fancy shapes as there are for round brilliants (AGS, and the new upcoming Cut Grade system coming from the GIA in June 2005).
We have just received our Trade CD from AGS which details the diamond facet combinations that will result in their top Princess Cut grades. At this time I can say that tradespeople and consumers will be surprised at the facet combinations that will achieve the top grades. They are significantly different from current thinking and will have an impact on manufacturing and pricing.
More to come.
