Whether it's better to sell diamonds loose or in a setting depends on several factors, including the diamond's quality, the market, and the buyer's preferences:

Loose Diamonds:

Transparency: Buyers can inspect the diamond more thoroughly when it is loose. They can see the entire stone, making it easier to assess its quality and value.

Certification: Loose diamonds can be independently certified, which can increase buyer confidence and potentially fetch a higher price.

Flexibility for Buyers: Buyers who are looking for specific settings or custom designs might prefer to purchase a loose diamond and set it according to their preferences.

Diamonds in a Setting:

Complete Product Appeal: A diamond in a well-designed setting can be more visually appealing and may attract buyers who are looking for a ready-to-wear piece.

Perceived Value: The setting can add to the overall value, especially if it is made of precious metals or includes additional smaller diamonds or gemstones.

Targeted Market: Some buyers prefer the convenience of purchasing a finished piece rather than dealing with the process of setting a loose diamond.

In general, selling a diamond loose is often better if the focus is on the diamond's quality and if you are targeting a market that values independent certification and flexibility in design. Selling it in a setting can be better if the design and overall aesthetic are strong selling points, or if you're targeting buyers who want a finished product.

Is it best to sell diamonds by themselves or in a setting?

'Best' is a judgment and you are the judge. Take your diamonds and their settings to a certified gemologist, who will help you document the diamonds as to their clarity, colour, cut and carat weight, and who will also help you determine composition of the setting metal. If the setting is signed by a named designer, the design alone may have value.
