Diamonds
The quality of a diamond is mainly determined by its facility to reflect light and return white and colored light. Diamond pendants, diamond engagement rings, diamond earrings, diamond wedding bands, diamond anniversary bands…have all been graded traditionally by using what’s generally referred to as the four C's. Carat weight is simply the weight of a diamond. Color and clarity are important when determining the rarity of a diamond. Cut is the C that helps determine the light performance of a diamond.
Exceedingly slight color disparities are of major importance when determining how rare a diamond is. However, they are never a make or break factor in determining its splendor. Laypeople often ballyhoo this factor as the most important part of a diamond's beauty, but the other factors can be just as important, if not more so.
Did you know a flawless diamond is no more beautiful to the unaided human eye than a grade in the middle of the scale? Extremely understated differences in clarity are very important to determine a gemstone’s rarity, but they only affect beauty when they’re in the very low end of the scale. Conventionally, a clarity scale has 11 grades. The highest eight grades have zero flaws that the naked eye can detect.
The weight of a diamond may be important, but it doesn't always illustrate the perceived size of a diamond. For instance, a shallow cut diamond will have a greater diameter, and will most likely appear larger. A diamond with superior light presentation will look considerably bigger than it actually is.
Cut of a diamond may be the most difficult to judge. A diamond with facets cut only a few degrees out of alignment can result in a poor quality stone. For a round brilliant cut, there is a balance between "brilliance" and "fire." When a diamond is cut for too much "fire," it looks fake. Well-executed round brilliant cut diamond rings should reflect light upwards and make the diamond have a white appearance when viewed from the top. An inferior cut will produce a stone that appears dark at the center and in some extreme cases the ring settings may show through the top of the diamond as shadows.
With five definitive collections providing unique individuality and a large number of choices, you just can’t go wrong with a Love Story diamond jewelry store.
