GRA Certification

Key Features of GRA Certification

  1. Authentication: The certification ensures that the stone is a genuine moissanite and not another material, such as cubic zirconia.

  2. Quality Grading: It evaluates the gemstone based on several factors, including:

    • Cut: How well the gemstone has been shaped to enhance its brilliance.
    • Clarity: The presence or absence of inclusions or blemishes.
    • Color: Moissanite's color is graded, with high-quality stones being nearly colorless.
    • Carat Weight: The weight and size of the gemstone are specified.
  3. Unique Identification: GRA-certified moissanite often comes with a unique serial number laser-engraved on the girdle of the stone. This allows you to match the stone to its certification.

  4. Certificate Details: The certification document includes a detailed description of the stone, a grading chart, and sometimes an authenticity guarantee.

Why GRA Certification Matters

  • Trustworthiness: It reassures buyers of the quality and authenticity of their moissanite.
  • Transparency: The certificate provides a clear understanding of what you're buying.
  • Resale Value: A certified moissanite may hold better resale value since its quality and authenticity are documented.
