The Four C's

Cut describes the proportions and angles of a diamond. Many people confuse cut with the shape of a diamond. Although nature determines the other three characteristics, it takes a master diamond cutter to reveal a diamond’s true beauty. Diamonds are available in various shapes, including round, square, pear, heart, marquise and oval, but cut refers to the angles and proportions of a diamond. A well-cut diamond reflects light from one mirror-like facet to another and projects the light through the top of the stone. The result is a fiery and brilliant display. Diamonds that are cut too deep or too shallow leak light through the side or bottom, resulting in a lackluster appearance and diminished value.

White-colored diamonds remain the most popular, even though diamonds are found in a kaleidoscope of col­ ors. Diamonds are graded on a color scale implemented by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), which ranges from D, which while truly colorless diamonds, graded D, are treasured for their rarity, diamond color is ultimately a very personal taste. Ask Pickett Brothers Jewelers to show you an array of color grades next to each other to help you determine your color preference.

Nature ensures that each diamond is as individual as the person who wears it. Naturally occurring inclusions such as minerals or frac­tures are identifying characteristics created while diamonds are formed in the earth. Jewelers use magnification to view diamonds at 1Ox their actual size so these tiny inclusions are more easily seen. Inclusions are measured on a scale of perfection, known as clarity, which was established by GIA The greater a diamond’s clarity, the more rare and valuable it is. The less centrally located the inclusion in the diamond the less it impacts the dispersion of light.

Carat is a diamond’s measure of weight, not size. One full carat is equal to 100 points. A ¾ carat diamond is the same as 75 points. Since larger diamonds are found less frequently in nature, a one carat diamond will cost more than twice a ½ carat diamond (assuming all other characteristics remain consistent). The cut and the mounting can make a diamond appear larger than its actual weight. Pickett Brothers Jewelers will help you find the right diamond and mount­ ing to optimize its beauty.
