Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Azo dyes in velvet fabric, Formaldehyde in adhesives and finishes, Mold and microbial growth and Fiber shedding and inhalation on the Helzberg Diamonds and not on the Helzberg Diamonds.
  • We flag Ink and pigment heavy metals (lead, cadmium, chromium) and Mold and bacterial growth in damp conditions on the Helzberg Diamonds and not on the Helzberg Diamonds.
  • The Helzberg Diamonds is velvet fabric, cardboard/wood box interior where the Helzberg Diamonds is Cardboard, paper, printed box, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.

Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
