RARE 8.76-CARAT NATURAL FANCY ORANGY PINK DIAMOND DEBUTS Platinum Ring with Argyle Pink Diamonds Available by Appointment New York, March 11, 2014…An extremely rare Natural Fancy Orangy Pink Diamond will be unveiled this month, available by appointment only at select One and Only One™ locations nationwide. The 8.76-carat cushion-cut Fancy Orangy Pink Diamond (SI2) is surrounded by white diamonds and 84 round Argyle Pink diamonds (0.54 carats). Set on a ring of platinum and 18K rose gold, the Fancy Orangy Pink Diamond is certified by Gemological Institute of America (GIA). The price is available on request. “In the past four years, rare pink and orange diamonds have broken numerous records at the world’s premier auction houses,” said Joe Padulo, CEO of Padulo Privé, an adviser to elite jewelers and luxury brands. “This Fancy Orangy Pink -- a pastel pink with just a hint of saffron orange -- combines the most sought-after colors in a stunning cushion-cut stone. It will surely find its way into the portfolio of a discerning investor/collector of Natural Pink Diamonds.” Pink diamonds are among the rarest and most coveted of all Fancy Color Diamonds. In fact, the top three prices paid for any gemstones have all been for pink diamonds. In addition to their natural beauty, their scarcity and increasing investment value adds to their desirability throughout the world -- especially of late in the Asian market. Large Fancy Orangy Pink Diamonds rarely come up at auction: In May, 1995, at the Christie’s Geneva Sale of Magnificent Jewels, an 18.65-carat Fancy Orangy Pink Diamond Ring sold for $2 million, or $111,000 per carat. In November, 2013, at the Christie’s Hong Kong Sale of Magnificent Jewels, a 12.85-carat Fancy Intense Orangy Pink Diamond Ring fetched $4.95 million, or $385,000 per carat.

Investment Casting Or the Lost Wax Process
Investment Casting or The Lost Wax Process Apecs Investment Castings was founded in 1963 and is now situated in the Melbourne suburb of Burwood where we have been since we outgrew our Canterbury factory in August 1987. The company name (APECS), stands for Anthony Philip Eccles Casting Service. Investment is a type of plaster that we use in our process of reproducing multiple copies of an original master pattern which is usually supplied to us by our customers. This is a classic 18ct yellow gold emerald and diamond ring taken from the Apecs catalogue. The next series of photos will show the steps involved in producing multiple copies of this ring. An original master pattern is designed and fabricated by our customers and supplied to us to reproduce in the quantities and metals of their choice. It is important to ensure that the master is made as accurately as possible and to pay particular attention to the finish of the master pattern. The better the quality of the master pattern the better the casting result. The finished master pattern ready for the caster. A picture of the master pattern is drawn and a mould number is allocated for identification. When the customer wants to reorder he quotes the mould number for the pattern he wants. A sprue is soldered onto the pattern. This sprue enables the pattern to be easily located in the mould and will provide the path for the wax to be injected into the rubber mould. To make a mould the master pattern is placed between sheets of uncured vulcanising rubber.

Carat Weight It's the Old Quandary. Is Bigger Better? Size Is Sought After, Naturally; but Overall Quality Counts in the Stretch
Carat Weight It's the old quandary. Is bigger better? Size is sought after, naturally; but overall quality counts in the stretch. This balance of size and quality makes up much of the art of a professional gem cutter. It is the cutter's job to produce a gorgeous diamond while giving the consumer the highest CARATAGE for his or her money. Caratage means CARAT, the measurement used to weigh a diamond. The word carat is taken from the perfectly matched carob seeds that people once used in ancient times to balance scales. So uniform in shape and weight are these little seeds that even today's sophisticated instruments cannot detect more than three one-thousandths of a difference between them. Don't confuse it with KARAT, the method of determining the purity of gold. What's The Point? One Carat= 200 milligrams, or 0.2 grams. 142 carats adds up to one ounce. Carats are further divided into points. Carat Weight point system What does all this mean, and how does it work? The price of a diamond will always rise proportionately to the size of the stone. Larger diamond crystals are more rare and have a greater value per carat. So, a one carat diamond of a given color and clarity will be much more valuable than 2 one half carat diamonds of equal quality. Cut As the single human contribution to a polished diamond's beauty, cut is perhaps the most important, yet most over-looked, of the Four Cs of diamond quality. How does cut affect a diamond's value and beauty? A good cut gives a diamond its brilliance, its dispersion, its scintillation-in short, its life.

The Metallurgy of Some Carat Gold Jewellery Alloys
The Metallurgy of Some Carat Gold Jewellery Alloys PART I — COLOURED GOLD ALLOYS Allen S. McDonald and George H. Sistare Handy & Harman, Fairfield, Connecticut, U.S.A. The classification of gold alloys in terms of caratage and colour provides no guidance as to the properties and working characteristics of the many carat gold alloys used in jewellery fabrication. Logical relationships do exist, however, between the composition, metallurgical structure and properties of such alloys, and these emerge from a study of the phase diagrams of the alloy systems involved. Part I of this review deals with coloured gold alloys. Part II will discuss their nickel containing counter- parts and will appear in the next issue of Gold Bulletin. Most carat gold for jewellery falls into one or other Three quasi-binary vertical sections of the ternary of two major categories, the coloured gold alloys diagram at constant gold contents characteristic of based on the gold-silver-copper or the gold-silver- jewellery alloys (10, 14 and 18 carat) are schematical- copper-zinc system and the white gold alloys. ly represented in Figure 4 where the parameter used Although many coloured gold alloys contain zinc on the abscissa is defined as: (from less than 1 to about 15 weight per cent), it is Ag wt.% valid to introduce this group in terms of the gold- Ag' = x 100 (per cent) silver-copper ternary system, from which all of the Ag wt.°Io + Cu wt.% alloys inherit certain fundamental metallurgical characteristics.

Two Treated-Color Synthetic Red Diamonds Seen in the Trade
Two TREATED-COLORSYNTHETIC RED DIAMONDSSEEN IN THE TRADE By Thomas M.Moses, llene Reinitz, Emmanuel Fritsch, andJames E. Shigley - - -- -- -- Two dark brownish red faceted stones, recently submitted to the GIA Gem Trade Laboratory for standard origin-of-color reports, were found to be treat- ed synthetic diamonds. This conclusion was based on observations of: patterns of zoned color, U.V. luminescence, and graining; metallic inclu- sions; and certain bands in the visible- and infrared-range absorption spec- tra. We believe that this is one of the first published reports of treated-color synthetic diamonds seen asfaceted gems. For some of the gemological features desen3ed here, such as visible-grangespectra with sharp absorption bands, this is one of the first reported occurrences in gemquality synthetic diamonds.
