A Quick Pearl of Wisdom
Don't expect the typical jewelry store experience. A selection of precious stones available in banks consists of faceted and polished diamonds, mostly round ones with 57 facets. Stock sizes range from small (up to 0.29 carats), medium (from 0.3 to 0.99 carats), and large (from 1 carat). Keep in mind that 1 carat equals 0.2 grams.
Purchasing diamonds in Belarus from banks isn't common practice, as they're usually hawked through jewelers or specialized retailers. However, if you're looking to make a bank draft or have a different indirect route in mind, here are some tips:
- Research local banks offering consumer financing or loan services for luxury items like diamonds.
- Contact local jewelers to inquire about their diamond collections and any financing options they might offer.
- Consider alternatives if direct purchase isn't possible. Look for international retailers like Heera Diamonds or Colombian Emeralds offering bespoke jewelry and financing options.
Remember, international sanctions may affect the availability of diamonds from Belarus due to restrictions like the EU ban on importing diamonds from Belarus and Russia. Tread lightly, bling-lovers! Be mindful of the rules and regulations when ordering. Now, go forth and dazzle!
