	    <div class="blogcontent">
	      <p>Certificated Diamond Rings are diamonds, which have been through the diamond certification process.&nbsp;In fact all diamonds have to go through the certification process in order to be sold.&nbsp;In 1974 the European Gemmological Laboratory (EGL) was started.&nbsp;The laboratory will grade the various gems that come through their place.&nbsp;There are other labs that also do certifications, but none are considered as good as the European Gemmological Lab.&nbsp;This company has offices in New York, Los Angeles, Vancouver, Toronto, and other cities in Europe.&nbsp;</p>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">They tend to be ahead of other companies certifying diamonds because they continually look for new standards and equipment to meet the grading they need completed.&nbsp;Companies such as Hancocks Jewellers will buy only certificated diamonds to create their rings from.&nbsp;The certificated diamond rings Hancocks Jewellers sells are graded in a couple of ways.&nbsp;They are graded for colour and clarity before the diamonds are sent to Hancocks Jewellers to be designed.&nbsp;Once designed the cut and carats are then assigned to the certificated diamond rings.&nbsp;The certificated diamond rings are also marked as non conflict diamonds.&nbsp;</div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Before purchasing your fine diamond jewellery you want to ensure that it is the best piece for you and that it is of the quality you are paying for.&nbsp;There are some companies that sell diamonds without certifications.&nbsp;This is another reason that Hancocks Jewellers is one of the best places to get your white diamond jewellery.&nbsp;</div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Hancocks Jewellers ensures that their diamond rings are all certified.&nbsp;The certificated diamonds rings help take the guess work out of what you are actually buying.&nbsp;You know that when you purchase a white diamond ring from Hancocks Jewellers it will be everything you hope for.&nbsp;You also know that the small price to pay for the certification is well worth it.&nbsp;</div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">There are a number of reasons why you should have certificated diamond rings in your possession.&nbsp;The certification will help you on the insurance.&nbsp;If the piece is lost, stolen, or damaged you have the certification to prove its real value, which can aid in recouping the losses.&nbsp;It can also help you establish how much insurance you will need.&nbsp;</div>
