Do you own inherited diamond jewellery in Indonesia, or perhaps diamonds purchased years ago without official certificates (GIA, etc.)? It's a common situation. Unfortunately, many Indonesians find it extremely difficult to sell these berlian tanpa surat (uncertified diamonds) locally for a price that reflects their actual quality. Often, offers are very low or buyers simply refuse them.

But there is a solution! You can sell your uncertified natural diamonds fairly and securely. While finding specialist buyers in Indonesia is rare, making the trip to Singapore allows you to connect with our experts. At Sell Your Jewellery by Dianoche, we have the expertise and equipment to evaluate your uncertified diamonds accurately and offer you a fair price based on their true merit.

The Challenge: Why Uncertified Diamonds Are Hard to Sell Locally

Most toko emas (gold shops) or general jewellers in Indonesia (and even most shops in Singapore) are reluctant to purchase diamonds without certificates. Here's why:

​

• Difficulty in Grading: Accurately assessing the 4Cs (Cut, Colour, Clarity, Carat Weight) without a lab report requires specialised skills and tools many shops don't possess.
   

• ​Risk Assessment: Buyers fear making mistakes about the quality or authenticity (natural vs. synthetic).
   

• Resale Issues: Selling an uncertified diamond later is more challenging for them.
   

• Repolishing Needed: Many old diamonds have to “go under the knife” and be repolished in order to qualify as an excellent cut. This process bears risk. 
   

This often means Indonesian owners of beautiful, older uncertified diamonds get minimal offers,If any. Sometimes only for the gold setting, overlooking the diamond's value.

Maximizing Your Diamond's Potential: Expert Advice
During our assessment, we might identify ways to potentially increase your diamond's value, especially if time is not your main concern. We may offer honest advice on options like:

 

• Recutting/Repolishing: Improving the cut of an older diamond can dramatically enhance its sparkle and value.
   

• Sending to a Lab (e.g., GIA): For diamonds of potentially high quality, obtaining a formal certificate could unlock a significantly higher price in the market, justifying the cost and time.
