The Secret of a Brighter Diamond
While color and clarity are big factors in the cost of a diamond, it is the Cut that breathes life, beauty and dazzling brilliance into a diamond. The three diamonds shown below are all SI2 Clarity and G-H Color, but there is a big difference in their appearance, due to the quality of Cut.SI2 Clarity, G-H Color, Fair Cut
(A deep cut usually makes
the diamond appear dark)SI2 Clarity, G-H Color, Very Good Cut
(A proper cut unleashes the
fire and brilliance within a diamond)SI2 Clarity, G-H Color, Fair Cut
(A shallow cut usually makes
the diamond appear opaque)Fast Fact: When it comes to Diamond Cut, usually consumers don't ask and retailer's don't tell.
The majority of diamonds sold at retail fall into the "poor", "fair" or "good" cut grades, which are below the acceptable standards for a diamond of exceptional beauty and brilliance. About 75% fall into this category. Nearly all of the diamonds sold at DiamondPendantsOnly.com are rated "very good", "excellent", or "ideal" Cut and display a dazzling shower of light back to the viewer's eye. These are the top 25% of all diamond cuts. Our lowest priced diamonds are rated "good" for cut grade, and still represent an excellent value with lively brilliance, compared to the"fair" and "poor" cut grades sold in retail stores.
