The following figures concerning dia- mond prices were obtained from Ant- werp, the Europeaa center of the dia- mond market. An uncut djamond be- fore the war cost $23 a carat and $32 after cutting. Immediately after the declaration of war, the price slumped. ¥n 1915 the Germans began to get mervous regarding the value of psper .momey and started buying all the dia- monds they could find. France, Switzerland, Italy and Eng- _fand followed suit and the price went wp rapidjy. .On the eve of the armis- tice, an uncut carat diamond was worth .$70. Since the war ended, the digmond market has boomed, owing to the depreciation of Enropean money, the difficulty of exchange and the em- bargo on the export of currency from one European nation to another. To- day' a carat of uncut stone finds af ready market at $150. The Antwerp merchants no longer seek customers. The market Is swamp- ‘. ed .with buye Credit is no longer given. The sales are for cash. The tuyer frequently resells and the new purchaser sells again at fat profits. “Thus the price keeps going up. Large stones are snapped up at unheard of prices. Guineas, per doz. .
