Cut
The captivating beauty of a diamond is in its ability to reflect light and sparkle like no other precious jewel can. ‘Cut’ with diamonds is not to do with the diamond’s shape, such as pear, oval, or round, but rather to do with how close to optimal the placement and proportion of the many facets of the stone is. The more skillfully the diamond has been cut, the more fire and brilliance will be apparent. Diamond graders work under laboratory condition to analyse how close a diamond has been cut to the ideal proportions. The grade the diamond is then given is referred to as the ‘Cut’ of the diamond ranging from ‘Excellent’ (perfect), ‘Very Good’, (indistinguishable from Perfect unless you’re an expert) At Grace Diamonds, we strive to provide diamonds that have maximum brilliance and beauty.
