VBJ's rare distinction
Vummidi Bangaru Jewellers has announced that it has become India's first jeweller to have all its diamonds and diamond-studded jewellery certified for the 'Highest Quality in Diamonds' by the International Gemological Institute, which is the world's leading independent diamond, gemstone and fine jewellery certification institute.
IGI's unique Mobile Laboratory has certified Vummidi Bangaru Jeweller's vast collection of Diamond Jewellery. Based on Cut, Carat, Clarity and Colour the diamond jewellery has been graded as the 'Highest Quality In Diamonds' -- IF VVS1 in Clarity and DEF (Exceptional White) Colour, lending the ultimate stamp of assurance, quality and authenticity to these elegant and stylish jewels.
Vummidi Bangaru Jewellers, an ISO Certified 9001-2000 company, has been offering its clientele the finest collection of gold jewellery since 1900 and has grown to one of the most trusted jewellery brands in
Chennai.
Having understood the importance of diamond certification, Vummidi Bangaru Jewellers have already been providing a certificate of authenticity for their diamond jewellery that was being graded in-house by Jithendra and Amarendhra Vummidi who are also trained gemologists.
However, in order to further build customer confidence by providing certification by an independent third party organisation, Vummidi Bangaru has become the first diamond jewellery showroom in India to have all its diamonds and diamond jewellery certified by IGI for the 'Highest Quality in Diamonds', said Amarendhra Vummidi, Partner, Vummidi Bangaru
Jewellers.
He said, "We have always believed in providing world class quality and we have built that confidence and trust in our customers. With the IGI certification we will be offering our customers the privilege of an Internationally recognized agency's certification in order to authenticate our existing claim of the best quality diamonds. This is an added advantage for them since they can be sure that an internationally recognised IGI certification, will be acceptable anywhere in the world."
Tehmasp Printer, managing director, IGI India said, "With retailers and consumers across the country feeling the need for an independent certification of their diamonds, our Mobile Laboratory provIdes service at their doorstep. We have certified many diamond jewellery showrooms across the country and this is lndia's first showroom where the diamonds graded are of the highest quality. It is very heartening to see Vummidi Bangaru Jewellers Diamond Jewellery completely focused on providing the highest quality of diamonds to its customers."
(IGI), the world's leading independent Gemstone & Diamond Certification Institute headquartered in Antwerp, Belgium has pioneered the concept of Certification over the last six years in India and today certifies many of India's popular jewellery brands. IGI set up the unique Mobile Laboratory concept (Grading at site) recently to meet the growing needs of the jewellery trade across the country and has received an overwhelming response so far. It takes approximately five working days to certify around 1000 carats, on completion of which, customised reports are given to jewellers. The concept has proved to be a boon to the jewellery industry and trade since huge volumes can be certified within the premises of the jeweller, with no security issues of couriering jewellery across cities, Printer said.
