GemFind has been quite busy this Summer, updating our Diamond Search to better handle GIA diamonds. In the future, if a diamond has Excellent Cut Grade, Excellent Symmetry, and Excellent Polish it will show using the "Ideal" filter. This will bring great benefit, by allowing your GIA diamonds to gain more visibility to the end consumer. Stay tuned for more exciting updates from our development team.
For more information about our GF Diamond Link technology and other online tools, please contact us at 800.373.4373.
