With the growing availability of laboratory-grown diamonds in the marketplace, full disclosure and confidence in knowing what you are buying are now more important than ever. GIA has developed a sophisticated and easy-to-operate desktop instrument to screen for these stones. The device’s standard capabilities include blue-to-green and brown diamond identification.

The GIA iD100® combines advanced diamond and gemstone identification research to distinguish natural diamonds from laboratory-grown (HPHT and CVD) diamonds and diamond simulants.

The GIA iD100® combines advanced spectroscopic technology with GIA’s more than 60 years of diamond and gemstone identification research to distinguish natural diamonds from laboratory-grown and simulants. The software upgrade comes pre-installed on the device and utilizes the same technology, combined with GIA’s pink diamond identification research, to distinguish natural pink diamonds from laboratory-grown, simulants, and other natural diamonds whose pink colour is introduced by treatments involving irradiation and annealing.
