Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWire) -- 03/18/2016 --The noted GIA Gemologist Karen Simmons, also known as the "Diamond Lady," has just released her much-anticipated book, Perfectly Clear: Buying Diamonds for Pleasure and Profit.

With a foreword written by the President of the World Federation of Diamond Bourse, Ernest Blom, the new book is designed to educate and entertain readers about all of the important aspects surrounding diamonds and investing in diamonds.

In Perfectly Clear, Karen Simmons tells a unique story about diamonds. She uncovers the truth behind the "4 C's" of diamond grading, goes behind the scenes of Hollywood's secret affair with gemstones and discusses several diamond criminals. She also teaches readers on how to make any diamond investment worthwhile, compares the difference in popular diamond shapes and sheds light on how to tell if a diamond is real or fake.

"Karen Simmons takes the reader behind the arcane industry of diamonds." explains Ernest D. Chu, the author of Soul Currency and former Wall Street Journal financial columnist. "This book will provide valuable knowledge and insight."
