GIA certificate
GIA Gemological Institute of America was founded in 1931. GIA majors provide courses such as research, sales, and identification. The 4C standard proposed by GIA is a general standard in the international jewelry industry. GIA lab-grown diamond and natural diamond certificates are the same, provide 4c description, and the lettering on the waist is engraved with the words "LABORATORY GROWN" in addition to the certificate number.
