Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How to Understand Gem Certifications?

Gem certifications are documents issued by recognized gemological laboratories that verify the authenticity and characteristics of a gem. Common certifications include the GIA (Gemological Institute of America), the IGI (International Gemological Institute), and the AGS (American Gem Society). These certificates detail aspects such as the gem's carat weight, color, clarity, and cut.

What Are the Differences Between Diamond Cuts?

A diamond's cut refers to how the stone has been cut to maximize its brilliance and light reflection. Common cuts include the round brilliant cut, princess cut, emerald cut, and oval cut. Each cut has its own characteristics and levels of brilliance, and the choice depends on personal taste and the type of jewelry.

How to Identify Authentic Jewelry?

To identify authentic jewelry, it is important to consider several factors:

• Certifications: Make sure that the gems are accompanied by certificates from recognized gemological laboratories.
• Purity Marks: Check for purity marks on precious metals, such as gold (14K, 18K) or silver (925).
• Seller Reputation: Only buy from trusted stores like LENORA Jewelry that offer authenticity guarantees.
• Physical Inspection: Examine the jewelry closely, looking for any signs of counterfeiting, such as differences in color or the presence of bubbles in the gems.
