About diamonds

 

Diamond Cut

 

The cut or 'make' of a stone is one of the most important of all diamond characteristics because it determines its brilliance. It refers to the angles and proportion of a diamond, as well as its polish and quality of faceting. more info

Diamond Colour

 

Diamonds act as prisms and can divide light into a spectrum of colours and reflect this light as colourful flashes referred to as fire. The more colourless a diamond is the more colourful the fire will appear. more info

Diamond Carat Weight

 

Carat is often confused with size, but it is actually a measure of weight. The cut of a diamond can make it appear much larger or smaller than its actual weight. more info

Diamond Clarity

 

Most diamonds have natural identifying characteristics referred to as inclusions. Clarity describes the presence or absence of inclusions within the diamond and blemishes on its surface. The less inclusions a diamond has, the more valuable it is. more info
