Price guide

Diamond price in Budapest depends on liquidity, not only laboratory quality

Retail price, insurance value and buying offer are different numbers. A private seller needs to know which one is being discussed.

How the Budapest exchange file is read

A resale price is shaped by what a professional buyer can reasonably resell, not by the emotional value or the original boutique invoice alone.

Carat, colour and clarity matter, but certificate reputation, cut quality, fluorescence, market demand, mounting and brand paperwork can all move the final answer.

Valuation matrix

What changes a Budapest diamond offer?

A serious exchange file is built from layers. Each layer can strengthen the result, reduce risk or show that more documentation is needed before any price can be defended.

Certificate strength

GIA, HRD and IGI reports give the stone a shared language. Report number, date, measurements and grading consistency matter.

Stone liquidity

Carat, colour, clarity, cut, fluorescence, proportions and visible inclusions shape what a professional buyer can resell.

Jewellery context

Ring size, hallmarks, metal, repairs, wear and whether the diamond is mounted or loose can change the route.

Maison premium

Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Bulgari or Chopard signatures need proof, reference and condition checks, not just stone weight.
