We're glad to present you a
few tips on buying your diamond.
The four most popular factors used to measure diamond
quality are cut,
color, carat
and clarity.
This set of criteria was introduced to consumers in
1939 in order to provide consumers
with a reference for evaluating diamonds.
Nature dictates the characteristics of color, clarity
and carat, while cut is directly influenced by humans.
Although the 4Cs provide scientific
guidelines for evaluating diamond quality, they do not
necessarily measure diamond beauty. Please
take these 5 simple steps before you
make a decision.
Shape:
Shape refers to form or appearance of a diamond - i.e.
whether the diamond is round, triangular, square, marquise,
pear, oval or heart-shaped.
 
Carat:
Refers to the measure of weight of a diamond. One carat
is equivalent to 200 milligrams. One carat can also
be divided into 100 "points." A .75-carat
diamond is the same as a 75-point or 3/4-carat diamond.
 
Clarity:
Diamonds, like people, have natural blemishes in their
make-up. These tiny faults, or inclusions, are formed
by minerals or fractures while the diamond is forming
in the earth.
When light enters a diamond, it is reflected and refracted
out. If there is anything disrupting the flow of light
in the diamond, such as an inclusion, a proportion of
the light reflected will be lost.
Color:
Most diamonds appear icy white, but many have tiny hints
of color. Diamonds are graded on a color scale established
by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), ranging
from D (colorless) to Z.
