One-day Diamond workshop
A one-day workshop introducing you to diamonds - from their formation (both natural & synthetic) through cutting & grading, to learning how to distinguish them from their imitations.
During the day we'll look at
- their natural formation
- the history of cutting & polishing
- diamond grading
- imitation stones
- synthetic (laboratory grown) diamonds
- identifying diamonds & separating them from their imitators
You will also have the opportunity to see & test a selection of diamonds & their imitators, demonstrating examples of some of the subjects we will discuss.
Are you
- a gem lover
- a jeweller who wants to know a bit more about the stones you are using in your work
- an antique dealer who would like to understand more about the stones you are seeing
The day is suitable for everyone with an interest in gemstones & will be a mixture of theory & practical work.
