HRD Antwerp teams with Instappraise for diamond database integration for faster appraisals

(CALGARY, Alberta) – The developer of the jewelry appraisal creation and management solution, Instappraise is pleased to announce a new collaboration with HRD Antwerp. Thanks to this joint effort between the fast-growing technology start-up and Europe’s leading authority in diamond grading, education, and equipment, Instappraise’s jewelry appraisal software solution now integrates with HRD Antwerp’s natural and lab-grown diamond grading report database.

Jewelry professionals recognize HRD Antwerp for its double coding system. The organization draws on 575 years of experience passed down through Antwerp’s diamond trade.

With this collaboration, the power of HRD Antwerp’s Diamond Grading Report database is directly integrated into Instappraise’s appraisal creation process. This integration allows jewelry appraisers to easily access grading information contained on HRD Reports, instantly download, and add all pertinent grading data to their appraisal documents, including a PDF version of the HRD Grading Report(s).

Instappraise makes this step seamless in the appraisal creation workflow through automation. With this new integration, jewelry professionals can easily import diamond information and confirm that on-location observations from an item being appraised match the data from its HRD Antwerp Diamond Grading Report and incorporate the data into the appraisal.

This innovative integration speeds up and optimizes the jewelry appraisal workflow for the appraiser by automating the data entry process, saving valuable time, and significantly reducing the risk of human error, including typos and other accidental data entry human errors.

The HRD Antwerp reports available through this integration include the Natural Diamond Grading Report, the Laboratory Grown Diamond Grading Report, the Treated Diamond Grading Report, the Natural Diamond Colour Grading Report, and the Natural Diamond Identification Report.

The process is simple:

  1. Create an appraisal on Instappraise
  2. Add a diamond to the document
  3. Type in the grading report number inscribed on the diamond or as mentioned in the report
  4. Click “Import” and let Instappraise do the rest

Repeat these steps as many times as needed to ensure all HRD Antwerp graded diamonds mounted in the jewelry are added to the document.

“Jewelry appraisals are crucial quality elements for retailers and consumers. We are glad to tie up with Instappraise to incorporate HRD Antwerp certified diamonds in the appraisal reports,” said Ellen Joncheere, CEO – HRD Antwerp.

“Incorporating our grading reports in the appraisals will further enhance the customer’s buying experience and support the retailer in their sales process.”

We love the wide range of jewelry metals today that give consumers tremendous options for creating the exact piece of their dreams.

These options better reflect the tastes of a client and help them to personalize their jewelry, making it truly unique to them.
