Laser Inscription on Diamonds
Snyder Jewelers can have a laser inscription ( a microscopic identification) on your diamond! The development of the Excimer Laser is the key element that has made laser eye surgery possible. The Excimer Laser was created by IBM and is a great improvement over some of the older lasers. It is a "cool laser" meaning is does not heat up the surrounding air or surfaces. The laser is a very tightly focused beam of ultraviolet light, that only penetrates the surface a microscopic amount, less than one billionth of a meter!
Now, this gentle laser is being used to inscribe diamonds and gemstones with a permanent identification number, or a personal message. Inscriptions make identification mistakes or switches virtually impossible. The inscription is only visible through a 10x to 20x eye loupe or microscope, giving you security, peace of mind and even romance! Not only can you be certain of your diamond's identity, buy you can personalize your diamond by adding an image, like a heart for instance. You can even have your diamond inscribed in your own handwriting, or with an image or logo of your choice
Lance Painter, of Gemscreen Laser, has been working in the jewelry and gem industry for many years. Painter says, "This laser is equipped with a 1000x high resolution camera, and can easily inscribe three text lines on a human hair!" You can imagine, if this laser is safe to use on the human eye, it is certainly safe to use on the hardest substance known to man. It is completely safe for your diamond. We guarantee it!
This is not a new process, Snyder's had been selling diamonds with laser inscriptions for more than 30 years. There are only a few Excimer Lasers in use in the jewelry industry today. They are in the world's most respected gem laboratories such as the Gemological Institute of America and the European Gem Laboratories.
