Diamond ... Speculation ...

•

Speculation with other people's money is not limited to the banker
or promoter. In other words, a merchant who is not soundly informed as to his merchandise can only SPECULATE WITH HIS CUSTOMER'S MONEY, for he is never sure of the true quality of his
product.
As the DOLLAR VALUE of a diamond is determined by the qualities
of Color, Cutting, Perfection and carat weight, instead of the commonly used single quality of perfection alone, you have the right
to expect only a trained Jeweler with full knowledge and the
necessary Gem Testing Instruments to give you this vital protection.
