Diamond and jewelry pricing is largely based on the supply and demand for a particualr item in particular markets. Being a globally desired luxury good, they are traded in various markets around the world, where various preferences exist that can lead to higher prices achieved for certain diamonds or pieces of fine jewelry.
At Meridian Diamond, we spend a great deal of time and efforts on reaching out to the international markets that are currently strongest for particular jewelry items, in order to maximize their value upon the time of their sale, in addition to having retail outlets for certain items as well. These markets have an above average demand for certain items, which is reflected through higher prices, thus allowing Meridian to sell your items for more, and in-turn allowing us to pay you more up-front.
Many buyers in the market place are limited by their reach and marketplaces in which they sell to, where as Meridians extensive knowledge and selling specialists are essentially workin for clients on a daily basis to maximize the value upon time of sale for both parties.

Demand
THE VALUE OF A DIAMOND
The most common factors that play into the value of a diamond are the "4 C's". These "C's" respectively stand for Carat, Color, Clarity and Cut.
While these variables do certainly play a large role in the value, current market trends and supply and demand factors can also have short term effects on the value of particular diamonds or the pieces of jewelry comprised of diamonds, precious metals and potentially other precious gemstones.
Our staff of graduate gemologist and market experts understand the slight variables that can mean large differences in value and look to each diamond or piece of jewelry for its maximum value, while informing the client of the unique characterisitvs of each jewelry item of their and how it effects the value.
