When looking for a diamond we recommend:
The Four C’s
The four C’s are commonly used to assess the rarity of diamonds. Diamonds with the highest ratings are the rarest, and, thus, the most expensive.
Light is the element that interacts with a diamond and its interplay is, in reality, what gives a diamond its unique beauty. Contrary to what many people believe, spending more for a rarer diamond doesn’t necessarily make it more beautiful.
Color
Diamonds range, most commonly, from pure ice white to varying shades of yellow or brown. They are most commonly referred to a scale developed by the Gemological Institute of America that goes from ‘D’ to ‘Z’. The diamond color is normally determined in controlled lighting conditions and by comparing it to a set of master stones. You should try to buy jewelry with a minimum of H color as these diamonds will appear white to the eye when mounted. Most importantly, if your jewelry contains more than one diamond, they should be well matched to give the best overall appearance.
Clarity
The relative ‘PURITY’ of a diamond is another factor that determines its ‘RARITY’, and, thus, its cost or value. The more ‘PURE’ a diamond is, the rarer it is. The industry standard for ‘CLARITY’ is what an ‘EXPERT’ can see internally in a diamond with a 10X loupe. A diamond that is considered ‘FLAWLESS’ is one, in which, and expert cannot see any imperfection.
Carat Weight
Carat is often thought of as size when it actually is a measure of weight. One carat is equal to 200 milligrams. Diamonds are most commonly referred to in ‘POINTS’. 100 points equals one carat. For example, 75 points equals ¾ of a carat.
Cut
Cut refers to the angles and proportions an artisan creates in transforming a rough diamond into a polished diamond. Based on experience and observation, these craftsmen can manipulate the polished facet surfaces to reflect the majority of light from one facet to another back through the upper surface of a diamond, rather than have it ‘leak’ out the bottom of the diamond. This gives the diamond ‘Fire’, ‘Brilliance’ and ‘Scintillation, which, ultimately determines a diamond’s ‘BEAUTY’.
