La Jolla Jewelry Appraiser Won The 2022 ASA Rising Star Award
Jewelry appraiser Trang Pham, GIA Graduate Gemologist, owner of La Jolla Gem Appraisal has won the Rising Star award 2022 by the prestigious American Society of Appraisers (ASA). This is another step in proving her commitment with the profession she is passionate with.
La Jolla Gem Appraisal applies advanced technology to identify natural versus synthetic diamonds
In the trade, it is essential that laboratory-grown diamonds can be identified because consumers need to know what they are buying, and because there are often significant price differences between them and natural gemstones. It is increasingly important for gemologist appraisers to make that call of diamond origin (natural or synthetic) when appraising jewelry to produce credible reports for their clients.
Fracture-filling in diamonds: a treatment to enhance diamond clarity but it needs to be disclosed to the consumers
There are many diamonds (both loose and mounted stones) that come across my desk on a daily basis for inspection as a part of the appraisal process. One of them is this diamond.

How To Date Diamonds?
Scientists estimate that the earth is about 4.6 billion years old. According to GIA, research published in 2010 indicates that the youngest known diamonds—found in a Brazilian kimberlite—are just 107 million years old. On the other hand, the oldest known diamonds—from Canada’s Ekati mine—are as much as 3.5 billion years old.
