DGJV Diamond and gem grading
Previous Next

 

Welcome to DGVS, the trusted and independent diamond and gem valuation service.

We have provided gemmology valuation and grading of the highest quality for over 20 years, serving jewellers throughout the UK. As well as providing valuation certificates for modern cut diamonds, we also specialise in increasingly sought after lab grown diamonds, and of course second hand and antique jewellery which generally does not come certified.

At our dedicated lab, with the best analytical tools, we can calculate diamond and gem weights and estimate values of mounted and unmounted stones.


Certificates

We issue a range of certificates at highly competitive prices:

  • Diamond Grade and Valuation Report
  • Full Diamond Grading and Valuation Report
  • Coloured Stone Valuation Report
  • Gem Stone Valuation Report

A range of grade, custom and bespoke reports are also available. We can customise reports to your business needs.

Value

Our valuation service includes valuation for:

  • Insurance
  • Probate
  • Resale value

We guarantee a rapid turnaround time for our postal service.

Services

You can access our services a number of ways:

  • Onsite: We will visit your premises
  • By Post: send your items to us
  • In person: visit our Leeds operation

Please bear in mind jewellery valuation is an opinion, not a scientific fact. A valuation can differ between valuers depending on wholesale cost, mark up, current market, the status of the retailer and of course the location in the world in which the item is valued.

Pricing

We offer a negotiable price structure, depending on your volume and regularity of work.

Our services have a proven high value to sellers and buyers of new, second hand and antique items.

  1. A certificate certainly helps to close a sale.
  2. DGVS certificates increase customer confidence in the retailer.
  3. A certificate acts as an ID for the item in case of subsequent loss or damage.
  4. And DGVS certificates provide technical information which can aid sales staff, who may not have the gemmological knowledge to answer a customer’s questions - thus saving time, developing trust and helping with sales

 


Trade references are available here. We have many satisfied customers throughout the UK.
