A message from IGI CEO Tehmasp Printer, underscoring the importance of trust and its vital components in the analysis, grading and certification of diamonds, gemstones and jewelry.
Gemstones and jewelry should only change hands when all parties are confident in the details. Regardless of location or marketplace, an IGI report is the common language of trust in the gemological world, and an essential part of any transaction.
