One of the most respectable and well-known gemological laboratories in the world is the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). GIA diamond certificates are regarded as reliable and accurate. You may trust them to determine the worth and quality of the diamond.

Since every diamond is different, several factors influence its price. Focus on the things that are most important to you when choosing a brilliant cut diamond.

The Anatomy of a Diamond

 

It is beneficial to comprehend how diamonds are formed, but do not mistake this understanding for the cut's excellence. We ought to give the grading report the weight it deserves. The diamond's cutting quality is assessed by grading the diamond's many components.

The widest point on a diamond's girdle is referred to as its diameter. The smallest diameter is used by fancy-shaped diamonds.

  • Table -

The flat top surface of a diamond is referred to as the table. The greatest portion of the diamond is found near the peak, sometimes referred to as the diamond table.

  • Crown -

The top portion of the diamond, which runs from the table to the girdle, is referred to as the crown.

  • Girdle -

This is the thin band that surrounds the diamond's widest point.

  • Pavilion -

This is the term used to describe the area of the diamond that is lower, from the girdle to the culet.

The diamond's bottom point contains a tiny facet called the culet. You might need to use magnification to see it clearly. The diamond's depth is measured from its table, or top surface, to its culet.

Diamond Worth: The Four C's

Understanding a diamond's classification is essential when purchasing one. The four primary elements are as follows: Carat Weight, Cut, Color, and Clarity.

Diamond Cut

  • Reflection -
A) External reflection is the phenomenon that occurs when light strikes a diamond and reflects.
  • Bending of Light -

 

B) The remaining light penetrates the gem and reflects towards the center of the diamond. The technical name for this is refraction.

 

  • Dispersion -

 

C) When a light beam returns to the surface, people see it as a spectrum of colors. The word used to describe this is dispersion.

The factor that determines a diamond's shine is its cut. There are 58 sides in a round diamond: 33 at the top, 24 at the bottom, and 1 at the bottom. Each diamond's facets must be positioned in precise geometric relation to one another when cutting the stone. Expert diamond cutters perfectly cut diamonds without sacrificing size to increase their weight.

Clarity of Diamonds

  • FL-EF :

Internally or externally flawless. Nothing included within.

  • VVS1-VVS2 :

incredibly small additions. quite difficult to see, even at ten times magnification.

  • VS1-VS2 :

small additions. Visible to the unassisted eye on occasion and detectable at 10x magnification.

  • SI1-SI2 :

little additions. observable to the normal eye and detectable at 10x magnification.

  • I1-I2-I3 :

Not flawless. Under 10x magnification, inclusions are discernible and typically evident to the unassisted eye.

A diamond's transparency is determined by the number, sort, position, and size of inclusions present in the stone. A defect or microscopic mineral in a gem is called an inclusion, and it can be seen using a jeweler's magnifying glass. A diamond gets more translucent, bright, and expensive the less inclusions it has. A "Flawless" diamond has no imperfections, which makes it extremely rare and valuable.

Diamond Hue

 

Colorless or almost colorless diamonds are the most valuable. Most diamonds appear colorless, but under a jeweler's loupe, many show a hint of yellow or light brown.

If the color grade of a diamond gets better, its value can go up a lot. The potential gain per carat might be in the thousands of dollars. The size of the diamond determines the actual growth. Customary engagement rings are typically colorless or almost colorless.

Fancy diamonds, sometimes referred to as "Fancy diamonds," can be found in the natural world in hues of deep yellow, red, pink, blue, and green. In the US and around the world, the GIA grades colorless diamonds according to an alphabetical system. Graders grade unusual white, or colorless diamonds D, E, and F. D-grade diamonds are extremely expensive and uncommon.

Weight of Diamonds in Carats

 

Diamonds are measured in carats (ct.), and their weight is calculated by dividing each carat into 100 points. As an example, one cent is worth 100 points, half a cent is worth 50 points, and so on.

The weight of the carat is not very important. The color, cut, and clarity of the diamond are very crucial. A big diamond with poor quality, great color, and lack of brilliance isn't worth much.

However, the value of larger diamonds rises dramatically with increased carat weight since they are less frequent than smaller ones. A 3.0 carat diamond is always more valuable than three identically sized 1.0 carat diamonds. Every diamond is different. When purchasing diamond jewelry, consider the carat weight, color, cut, and clarity.
