AGS Laboratories Products & Services Setting the Highest Standard for Diamond Grading TM is not just our business at the American Gem Society Laboratories (AGSL), it’s our mission - we were established to protect the consumer and provide superior client service along with the highest quality products. We are the leading diamond grading laboratory for cut, and were the first premier lab to issue a performance Cut grade for the princess shape. We grade diamonds using the gemological industry’s utmost standards of evaluating Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat Weight. With an AGSL diamond grading report, you are assured that the grade of the diamond is equal to its quality. That’s the kind of assurance a diamond grading lab should always give. It is the AGS Laboratories’ promise. The AGS Laboratories offers three types of Diamond Documents: The Diamond Quality TM Document (DQD) The DQD is the world’s leading diamond report for Cut, and the first one offering a Cut grade for both round brilliants and princess cuts. The DQD also provides a complete grading analysis of cut, color, clarity, and carat weight. We examine the performance of a diamond - how it handles and refracts light. The DQD’s 0-10 grading scale, with 0 representing Ideal, is easy to understand and provides a simple basis for comparison with other diamonds. As with all our diamond documents, we offer turnaround time in five business days for grading results. The Diamond Quality TM Report (DQR) The Diamond Quality Report (DQR) offers a complete grading analysis of color, clarity, and carat weight in an easy-to-understand presentation. It also includes information on proportions as well as polish and symmetry, without judging the quality of those properties. The Diamond Consultation (DC) The Diamond Consultation (DC) is a product for diamonds weighing 4.99 carats or less and provides shape, weight, clarity, and color information about the diamond. The DC provides a concise “snapshot” of a diamond and has an easy-to-read spine for quick filing and identification. In addition, the AGS Laboratories offers these services: The AGSL Laser Inscription Service allows retailers to inscribe, personalize and secure identification, using state-of-the-art technology, on anything from mounted stones to trademarks, logos, text, serial and personalized messages. AGS Laboratories is the ultimate one-stop-shop for the industry’s diamond documentation needs. Our Preferred Client Program offers a cumulative annual volume pricing to AGSL Preferred Clients. Tiered levels of pricing are offered based on the number of carats sent to the grading lab beginning with five hundred carats. The AGSL Preferred Client Program provides the best pricing for the best diamond grading documents.
