Dear Sue 

    The word CT. T.W. (Carat total weight) 

    My two cents 

    If you subtract the profit of the seller from $250 and from that
    take off the acual manufacturer's  profit and then take off the gold
    cost (including fabrication charges of the finding, plus the labor
    of setting), then divide it by two.

    Of course, thus  what ever answer you get that is the price of the
    diamonds in that bracelet and mind you includes the profit of the
    broker of the diamond and the diamond seller.

    SO IN CONCLUSION THE DIAMONDS ARE WORTH LESS THAN WHAT THEY HAVE
    BEEN SOLD FOR.

    BUT YOU ALSO USE DIAMOND POWDER ON THE WHEEL. 

    Hope this will give you enough ammunition, if you plan to use these
    diamonds.
