*Codes must appear in a column next to
all gemstone descriptions, with a noticeable reference or label, at
the bottom or back of invoices and memorandums. Codes and type of
treatments must only be used as directed in the Gemstone
Information Manual (GIM), 9th Edition, available online at
www.agta.org/info or from the American Gem Trade Association, 3030
LBJ Fwy., Ste. 840, Dallas, TX 75234. Phone: 800-972-1162.
All natural gemstones
can be divided into two basic categories:
1)
Those which are not enhanced.
N
The “N”
symbol appears for natural gemstones which are not currently known to
be enhanced (Alexandrite, Garnet, etc.). However, the “N”
symbol can also be used for other natural gemstones in the event that
a gemstone has received no enhancement and the seller will provide a
guarantee that there has been none. That
gemstone must be accompanied by a commercial document, such as an
invoice, memorandum and/or a laboratory report, to support the fact
that the gemstone is not enhanced.
2)
Since many enhancements are difficult or impractical to prove
definitively, the approach taken in this manual is, unless otherwise
indicated, to assume that such traditional enhancement has been done
to that particular gemstone. This assumption has been made in order
to protect both the seller and the consumer.
For
example, Ruby “F.” The surface cavities are filled with a
foreign matter such as glass. Within the industry, this gemstone must
be labeled with the letter “F.” This information must
also be provided to the consuming public in writing using plain
language. Abbreviations and codes are not sufficient.
NOTE:
Multiple enhancement techniques are sometimes applied to the same
material.
All
treatments must be listed. Example: Diamond “LF”
(Lasering and Filling).
DISCLOSURE
REQUIREMENTS
FOR
NATURAL GEMSTONES
SYMBOLS FOR
SPECIFIC FORMS OF ENHANCEMENTS
B
Bleaching: The use of
heat, light and/or other agents to lighten or remove a gemstone’s
color.
C
Coating: The use of
such surface enhancements as lacquering, enameling, inking, foiling
or sputtering of films to improve appearance, provide color or add
other special effects.
D
Dyeing: The
introduction of coloring matter into a gemstone to give it new color,
intensify
present
color or improve color uniformity.
F
Filling: The filling
of surface-breaking cavities or fissures with colorless glass,
plastic, solidified borax or similar substances. This process may
improve durability, appearance and/or add weight.
H
Heating: The use of
heat to effect desired alteration of color, clarity and/or phenomena.
If
residue of foreign substances in open fissures is visible under
properly illuminated 10X
magnification,
H F should be used.
HP
Heating and Pressure: The
use of heat and pressure combined to effect desired alterations of
color, clarity and/or phenomena.
I
Impregnation: The
impregnation of a porous gemstone with a colorless agent (usually
plastic) to improve durability and appearance.
L
Lasering: The use of
a laser and chemicals to reach and alter inclusions in gemstones,
usually
diamonds.
O
Oiling/Resin Infusion: The
filling of surface-breaking fissures with colorless oil, wax, resin
or other colorless substances, except glass or plastic, to improve
the gemstone’s appearance.
R
Irradiation: The use
of neutrons, gamma rays or beta particles (high energy electrons) to
alter a gemstone’s color. The irradiation may be followed by a
heating process.
U
Diffusion: The use of
chemicals in conjunction with high temperatures to produce ARTIFICIAL
color change and/or asterism-producing inclusions.
Note:
It is a violation of the FTC Guides to fail to disclose diffusion on
gemstones in
advertising,
promotional literature or commercial documents. Suggested methods of
disclosure are:
“(Gemstone):
chemically colored (Color) by diffusion.”
Example:
“Sapphire: chemically colored blue by diffusion.”
If
the color of the diffused gemstone does not permeate the entire
stone, then the following statement must also appear:
“Although
the color induced in diffusion treated gemstones is permanent, it
does not permeate the entire gemstone; therefore, recutting or
repolishing is not recommended.”
W
Waxing/Oiling: The
impregnation of a colorless wax, paraffin or oil in porous opaque or
translucent gemstones to improve appearance.
The above disclosure
language must be printed in a type-size and location so as to be
conspicuous.
