Last May, I participated in a special Amber Experience organised by Amber Experts in Gdansk. The two-day custom-designed program provided me with exclusive access to normally inaccessible sites and insightful workshops, offering an unforgettable journey into the world of amber. The following are my thoughts on amber after my Amber Experience.

Starting at 5:30pm ET (17:30 GMT) on Sunday, November 7, Branko Deljanin will present a fourty-five minute online seminar, “The Screening and Identification of Lab-grown-Diamonds (LGD) with Portable Instruments.” Sharing detailed diamond detection data from his soon-to-be-released book, Diamonds – Natural, Treated and Lab-Grown, Branko shares peer-to-peer, lab-tested, and now recommended portable diamond detection equipment. Closing his live session, Branko will respond to questions from the global audience.
As the world’s longest established provider of gem and jewelry education, Gem-A recognizes portable, and affordable systems to detect if a diamond is lab-created or natural remains one of the most in-demand topics of today. With Branko’s decades of diamond expertise as President and Head Gemologist at CGL Canadian Gemlab, founder of Branko Gems, the Online Diamond and Gemstone Academy and the popular publisher of numerous diamond and gemstone educational books, his online presentations are as well received as his speaking engagements, in-person classes and online diamond courses.
The timing of this specific class couldn’t be better. With U.S. fine jewelers denoting 2021 as “their best year ever,” and the consumer holiday shopping frenzy in full-swing, busy jewelry retailers worldwide require a reliable means to ensure the diamonds they’re selling are mined or man-made. “Indeed, diamond retailers need a handy and accurate lab-grown diamond detector as much as diamond designers and positions though-out the mined and man-made diamond supply chain do,” noted Branko Deljanin. “I’m proud to be speaking during Gem-A’s November 7 online conference and look forward to sharing months of lab study, testing and evaluation to determine the leading diamond identification instrument options available today.”
Taken, in-part, from a chapter within Branko’s Winter 2021 release: Diamonds – Natural, Treated and Lab- Grown, Branko organized six of the world’s most respected diamond and gemstone laboratory scientists to test drive an array of diamond detection equipment from portable, pricing and production aspects. Yet diamond instrument testing results from these think tank experts are a mere sliver of the total gemological offerings in Branko’s latest book, available now with a limited-time, advance-ordering discount through www.BrankoGems.com.
For those expecting to experience Branko’s interactive diamond and gemstone lectures scheduled for The 6th annual Mediterranean Gem and Jewellery Conference (MGJC), which was to be held in Greece this year, that event is postponed to a June-July 2022 timeframe due to pandemic matters. While MGJC 2022 promises to be outstanding, it’s rescheduled date is yet another reason to reserve your place now at Gem-A’s online gem day and benefit from the free registration to Branko’s presentation at 5:30pm ET on Sunday, November 7, 2021.
