I was just wondering if by using a spectroscope, one can determinate what would be the color of a rough diamond before polished. Of course I am speaking of diamonds with an overburden. Thanks |

spectroscope is used for diamond rough to determine the stress and strain so cutter will be careful in cutting procedure, thats all! determining the color by spectroscope is impossible. i guess you can find out the usage of spectroscope in The Gemology Project |

Thank you for your reply. The thing is that I know there is a tool that allows you to analyze rough diamonds and determinate the color the polished diamond will have. Maybe it is a spectograph not a spectroscope? |

well from most of the manufacturer i know they can judge the color of the rough by opening a window, sometime if the rough is glassy they can determine without window. ZVI YEHUDA Colorimeter is an instrument to grade rough color http://www.ogisystems.com/retaileds/colorimeter.html there are cut Advisor for cutting rough creating 3D models and plannings also rough marking. read more about these instruments here: http://www.octonus.com/oct/products/helium/rough/ http://www.ogisystems.com/manufactures/scanox-i500.html there are many products from ogisystems for rough and manufacturers as for the instrument to determine the color of polished (not rough) diamond there are Sarin Colorimeter and Sarin’s Colibri: http://www.sarin.com/colibri.asp http://www.sarin.com/colorimeter.asp |

Hi, Small correction, one uses a polariscope to see the strain or tension in a rough stone, not a spectroscope; |

Thanks to my insatiable curiosity and Google, voila! Such machines apparently exist. http://www.ogisystems.com/retaileds/colorimeter.html I have no idea if this thing really works as described. I'll leave that to the diamond experts here. I have a difficult enough time determining top colors in cut diamonds! |

That's cool, Rick. One of those gadgets that i'd like to play with if it weren't so expensive. |
