In every corner of the world, diamonds have been described using the GIA-developed 4Cs (colour, cut, clarity and carat weight) of diamond quality and the International Diamond Grading System™ for several decades. Today, digital technology plays an important role for many businesses,which is why GIA recently introduced the GIA Diamond Focus Report™, a low-cost digital report for natural, D-to-Z colour, round brilliant-cut diamonds weighing between 0.15 and 0.39 carats. Information included in the report comes from the same standards and processes used for all other GIA report services. The Diamond Focus Report includes information on the 4Cs, as well as a polish and symmetry grade with a fluorescence description. Laser inscription of the GIA report number is included. The results provided in a Diamond Focus Report are available through GIA’s online Report Check and can be downloaded from the GIA’s website at GIA. edu.
