(IDEX Online News) – Price changes in round diamonds were more pronounced in goods of less than 1 carat, albeit that there was less visible movement across all sizes than in previous months. Goods in the 1.00-1.24-carat range were largely static. Many items in the 3.00-3.99-carat range showed positive movements, but there was very little change in items sized 4 carats to 5 carats.

 

There was not much movement in fancy goods during the month. Items in the 1.00-1.24-carat category showed localized increases. Goods sized 2.00-2.99 carats showed some decreases in the best quality items. If prices moved at all, it was largely downward in goods sized 3 carats, 4 carats and 5 carats.

  

Following are some of the main changes in this month's IDEX Online Diamond Price Report.
