Terms I should know

[joe27]

So im going to go talk with a jeweler here pretty soon and I have noticed that on this board there are terms that I am not familiar with like SI, AGH, and son on. I am asking the community to educate me on diamond terms. I'm not asking for the whole book but a few things that could help me look like I know what I talking about. :D

Si means slightly included.

You can read more about clarity here:
Diamond Clarity (http://www.diamondinfo.org/content/diamond-clarity.php)

I'm not sure what you mean by AGH. But color (like G or H) is a measure of how bright/white a diamond is. You can read about color here:
Diamond Color (http://www.diamondinfo.org/content/diamond-color.php)

Best of luck :)

Any professional jeweler will know and recognize your level of knowledge; you'll do much better not trying to con him, but rather let him educate you, then you won't insult him but flatter him. He might even give you a better deal.
