IDL grading standards
IDL’s leading edge technologies have moved diamond grading from an art to a science. At IDL, objectivity is not just a statement, it is the result of scientifically based standards. Consistency through technology? is our commitment to the diamond & jewelry professionals and public we serve worldwide.
color
IDL has introduced ground-breaking technology, the IDL Colormeter®, that determines the exact color value of a diamond with accuracy far above existing color grading capabilities and in a consistent manner. At IDL, color grading is not based upon the perception of the human eye and a set of master stones, but is the result of an automated process.
clarity
IDL is the first global diamondlab to achieve a full definition of the SI3 clarity grade. It bridges the existing gap on the market between the SI2 and I1 grade. IDL’s techniques create an accuracy in clarity grading that will benefit your business.
cut
IDL is licensed to grade in accordance with the GIA Diamond Cut Grading System. The system is the result of extensive computer modeling and observations on actual stones to validate the science.
