What Is IGI Certification and Why It Matters
Introduction
Certification provides transparency, consistency, and peace of mind. IGI (International Gemological Institute) is one of the most reputable institutions that grades lab-grown diamonds.
What’s on an IGI Report?
- Diamond shape and measurements
- Cut, color, clarity, and carat grade
- Laser inscription number (matching the physical diamond)
- Lab growth process used (CVD or HPHT)
SynDia’s Certification Policy
While SynDia diamonds are strictly quality controlled, we believe in giving customers the option to choose certification. For an additional $100, buyers can request an official IGI certificate. This includes a physical document and a matching laser-engraved code on the girdle of the diamond.
Why Choose Certification?
- For resale value or insurance
- For peace of mind when gifting
- For extra transparency and documentation
Conclusion
Certification isn’t mandatory, but it’s a smart step—especially for larger or milestone purchases. SynDia empowers you to decide what level of assurance you want.
