These certificates are issued by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), a non-profit and independent organization. The gemstone or ring will be sent to the GIA laboratory for grading and this process takes 4-6 weeks in addition to the standard production time. For stones that are already mounted on the ring, the ct will be approximated as it can not be weighed.
