Diamonds
Diamond name comes from the ancient Greek word adamas, which means invincible. It is the hardest known natural material in the world.
Diamonds hardness and high dispersion of light make it useful for diamond rings, diamond earrings, diamond pendants, diamond necklaces, and diamond bracelets.
Diamond is treasured as gemstone since it’s use as religious icons in India at least 2,500 years ago.
Diamond can only be scratched by other diamonds, it maintains its polish extremely well and keeps its luster over long periods of time.
These qualities make it a well-suited ornament to daily wear. It is widely preferred gem in diamond rings, diamond earrings, diamond pendants, diamond necklaces, and diamond bracelets.
Diamond is commonly judged for it’s qualities by the four Cs, that are carat, clarity, color, and cut. Nearly half of all diamonds originate from central and southern Africa, however significant sources of diamond have been discovered in Canada, India, Russia, Brazil, and Australia also.
Diamond can be found in nearly any color, however yellow and brown color diamonds are most common. Colored diamonds contain impurities or structural defects that accounts for their color, while pure or nearly pure diamonds are transparent and colorless.

How much are my 10k gold diamond earrings worth?
I have an old pair of screwback 10k yg earrings with what appears to be real diamonds (they scratched glass). The diamond is round and according to an actual diamond size chart it weighs somewhere between .50- 1 carat. Both earrings with the diamonds intact weigh 2.82 g total.
I am just looking for a rough estimate. I know I should get them appraised. I want to sell them online but don’t even know how much around I should expect for them.
The gold alone is only worth $30 resale 10k is cheap, the diamond is most expensive so you’d come out better scrapping the gold and selling the diamonds separate.
