Hi

Was watching Gems as I like some of there designs they had a limited edition special but the presenter never gives the color or clarity of the 18ct range so I rang customer service and they said there is no minimum clarity or color it depends on the piece the color is generally I and the clarity could be SI or I. I was surprised as the prices were even more expensive than tjcs illana range which is SI clarity and G to H color minimum yet the grade of diamond is more like their classic collection which I belive is I clarity and I color!

Tjc aren't perfect I wish they would get more creative on the design front but they do offer good value and they are upfront about the grades of all their stones, I think gems lack of info is a little underhand won't be parting with my money to them!

I do like the fact that TJC tell you the grade of their diamonds so that you can make an informed choice. Having recently bought a small pair of Iliana diamond earrings, and comparing them to their 'classic' range diamond earrings, there's a world of difference, and whilst the classic pair weren't expensive, I don't think I'd buy that grade diamond again.
