What is the role of India in dealing Blood Diamonds ?

Leo asked:


Question inspired from the movie ” Blood Diamond” about the bloody conflicts in Sierra Leone and other parts of Africe for Blood Diamond. But shockingly, calm & secure India has a bigger role in this deal as 92% of blood diamonds are illegaly smuggled to India for polishing them. It is a $8 billion dollar business here. So is Indian & English industries fuel these conflict and thereby kill innocent people for the sparkle of stone ?

Kitty! asked:


There are a ton of differently shaped and sized diamonds out there. My wedding band is composed of 16 small round diamonds and one large diamond right in the middle. I know that they aren’t just found perfectly shaped and sized, so what do they look like before they’re made into jewelry?

xmymonkeysucksx asked:


For my birthday back in Feb. my boyfriend bought me a necklace. It’s a heart pendant with diamonds all in it (1/4 ct I believe) and the chain is sterling silver. Is it safe to use normal silver jewelry cleaner on the diamonds? Or should I stick to a home method like toothpaste? I’ve been reading that all over. I just want to make sure I’m doing the right thing before I ruin the diamonds lol.
BTW The link to what it looks like is here:

How are diamonds valued? How can you tell how many carats in a diamond by looking at it?

diamonds
BeArRr asked:


What is it do you look for, to value a diamond? What makes a diamond flawless?
How do you learn to do it?

When a jeweler values a diamond, is it accurate? Is seems such a flawed way of valuing something so expensive.
