About diamonds; non-industrial, (other than unworked or simply sawn, cleaved or bruted), but not mounted or set

HS code 710239 covers the trade of non-industrial diamonds that have been processed beyond the initial stages of extraction and cutting. These diamonds are an essential component of the global jewelry and luxury goods industry, contributing significantly to international trade and economic activity. The demand for high-quality, cut and polished diamonds remains strong, driven by consumer preferences for these precious gemstones in a wide range of applications, from engagement rings to high-end watches and other accessories.

Production process

The production of diamonds classified under HS code 710239 involves a multi-step process. After the initial mining and extraction of rough diamonds, the stones undergo a series of cutting and polishing techniques to enhance their brilliance, clarity, and overall aesthetic appeal. Master diamond cutters and polishers use specialized tools and equipment to carefully shape and refine the diamonds, ensuring they meet the exacting standards required for use in jewelry and other luxury products.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of diamonds under HS code 710239 are the rough, uncut diamonds themselves, which are sourced from mining operations around the world. Additionally, the industry relies on a range of specialized tools and equipment, such as diamond saws, polishing wheels, and precision measuring instruments. Skilled labor, in the form of experienced diamond cutters and polishers, is also a critical input for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 710239 is cut and polished diamonds, which are then used in the manufacture of a wide range of jewelry and luxury goods. These diamonds may be further incorporated into 711311 Jewelry of gold or 711319 Jewelry of other precious metal, or used in the production of 911401 Wrist-watches, pocket-watches and other watches, including stop-watches, with case of precious metal or of metal clad with precious metal.
