COLOR

The diamond color evaluation of most gem-quality diamonds is based on the absence of color. A Chemically pure and structurally perfect diamond has no hue, like a drop of pure water, and consequently, a higher value. Many of these color distinctions are so subtle that they are invisible to the untrained eye; however, these distinctions make a very big difference in the diamond quality and price.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”65″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row fullwidth=”yes” top_margin=”0″ bottom_margin=”0″ background_color=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1544483819260{margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row fullwidth=”yes” top_margin=”0″ bottom_margin=”0″ background_color=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1544471574779{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”66″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

CUT

Diamonds are renowned for their ability to transmit light and sparkle so intensely. We often think of a diamond’s cut as shape (round, heart, oval, marquise, pear…), but a diamond’s cut grade is really about how well a diamond’s facets interact with light. Precise artistry and workmanship are required to fashion a stone so its proportions, symmetry and polish deliver the magnificent return of light only possible in a diamond.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row fullwidth=”yes” top_margin=”0″ bottom_margin=”0″ background_color=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1544483819260{margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row fullwidth=”yes” top_margin=”0″ bottom_margin=”0″ background_color=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1544483692287{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

CLARITY

Natural diamonds are the result of carbon exposed to tremendous heat and pressure deep in the earth. This process can result ina variety of internal characteristics called “inclusions” and external characteristics called “blemishes.” Evaluating diamond clarity involves determining the number, size, relief, nature, and position of these characteristics, as well as how these affect the overall appearance of the stone. While no diamond is perfectly pure, the closer it comes, the higher its value.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”64″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row fullwidth=”yes” top_margin=”0″ bottom_margin=”0″ background_color=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1544483819260{margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row fullwidth=”yes” top_margin=”0″ bottom_margin=”0″ background_color=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1544486509968{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: -85px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”63″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

CARAT

Diamond carat weight is the measurement of how much a diamond weighs. A metric “carat” is defined as 200 milligrams. Each carat can be subdivided into 100 ‘points.’ This allows very precise measurements to the hundredth decimal place. A jewler may describe the weight of a diamond below on carat by its ‘points’ alone. For instance, the jeweler may refer to a diamond that weighs 0.25 carats as a ‘twenty-five pointer.’ Diamond weights greater than one carat are expressed in carats and decimals.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
