Understanding
Diamonds is the key to choosing the right Diamond.
APRIL BIRTHSTONE
The word diamond comes from the Greek word - adamas,
meaning the unconquerable. The Greeks also believed that the light from
the center of a diamond was the eternal flame of love. Diamonds are the
hardest natural mineral on earth. Their formation took place billions of
years ago miles below the earth's surface. Diamonds are pushed closer to
the surface of the earth during volcanic eruptions. Here they can be more
easily mined. Of all the diamonds mined approximately eighty percent are
used commercially in industrial equipment. Only about twenty percent of
all diamonds mined make it into the category of "gemstone quality".
Diamonds are carefully studied before cutting and polishing to ensure that
the full beauty of the stone is released. Even still, a diamond could loose
as much as 50% of its size in the process. During the 15th century, European
royalty began the custom of presenting their beloved with a diamond ring
to represent their commitment and to celebrate their marriage. This ritual
has expanded into almost all cultures over the years. A diamonds beauty
is timeless. When selecting a stone remember that its value is based both
on its beauty and its rarity. Diamonds are normally graded in four (4)
ways. These methods are most commonly known as the "Four C's".

CUT
 | The brilliant sparkle of a diamond comes
from the cutting and polishing of the stone. The angles of the cuts create
prisms and reflective surfaces. It is the angles that are the first
and most important part in producing a work of beauty from a raw diamond.
To explain this without going into all the technical aspects... if
the proportions are within a certain percentage the diamond produces more
light. This light can be both reflective and refractive in nature
producing the brilliant sparkle and beautiful colors. When the proportions
are too shallow the light tends to pass through the diamond and escape
out the bottom without really being noticed. A shallow cut is most noticeable
as having almost a fish eye look to its reflections when viewed from the
top. Also if the diamond is cut too deep the reflection and
refraction qualities are again lost. The closer a diamond is cut
to ideal proportions the greater the brilliance. Even if a diamond has
good color and good clarity its value could suffer if it has a poorly proportioned
cut. |  |

COLOR

The color of a diamond also has an effect
on the price. Diamonds may be graded for their color using different scales
but the most common methods used are standards set by the Gemological Institute
of America (GIA) and the American Gem Society (AGS). As with any precious
object, the more rare the greater the value. As you'll recall from the
first part of this section, only about 20% of all diamonds mined make it
into the category of being "gemstone quality". The closer a diamond
is to being colorless, the more rare it is.

CLARITY
Practically all diamonds have some small imperfections
called Inclusions.
Before a diamond is cut, it is studied to determine
where the inclusions are.
A tremendous amount of time is spent in studying each
and every stone. |
 |
FL-IF
No inclusions visible (by an expert) under 10x magnification.
(FL = Flawless,
IF = Internally Flawless.) |
VVS1-VVS2
Minute, extremely difficult to find under 10x. (VVS =
Very, very slight inclusions.) |
VS1-VS2
Minor, difficult to find under 10x. (VS = Very slight
inclusions.)
|
SI1-SI2
Noticeable, relatively easy to find under 10x. (SI =
Small inclusions.) | I1-I2
Obvious under 10x. Just visible to the naked eye. ( I1=
Imperfect.) |

CARAT WEIGHT
 The
term "Carat" is believed to have come from the seed ( kuara ) of the African Coraltree or from ( Greek -
keration
) the kernel of
the Carob bean. This unit of measurement is used in America , as well as Europe, and is actually a metric carat which is
equivalent to 200mg or 0.2g. Diamonds are carefully studied before cutting and polishing to ensure that the full beauty of the
stone
is released. Even still, a diamond could lose as much as 50% of its size in the process. Careful consideration
is taken when mapping the areas of a stone that will be cut away. Questions
about the shape the stone should be cut into also come into play. As an
example any given stone might not be suited for a round brilliant cut with
58 facets. It might be possible that the shape and internal characteristics
could produce a more valuable stone if it were cut into a marquise, princess
or trillion cut. The larger the diamond the more rare it is. The largest
rough diamond ever found weighed in at 3106 carats. It was cut into 105
stones with the largest one being the Cullinan I. (or Star of Africa) which
weighs in at 530.20 carats. |
