Diamond Cut
The cut of a Diamond is the only property which is totally dependent on man. Cut refers not only to the shape and style of the diamond, but its proportions, symmetry, and finish or “make”. Proportions and angles influence the internal reflection of light as well as the dispersion of light leaving the diamond. This determines the brilliance and fire (brightness and sparkle) of the diamond, and ultimately its perceived beauty.
Cut therefore, is actually one of the most important aspects to consider when choosing your diamond. A diamond can be cut for maximum weight recovery or maximum brilliance and beauty. All cuts are based on scientific formulas to maximize the return of light from the diamond. Ultimately taste and preference for the overall appearance determine the buyer’s choice. Diamonds may be cut to form a; Round Brilliant, Round Single, Princess, Heart, Emerald, Baguette, Marquise, Oval, Pear, Radiant or Triangle.
