Diamonds
Diamonds are a unique natural stone found deep within the earth’s crust. For thousands of years, Diamonds have been revered for their unmatched beauty and ability to manipulate light with gorgeous results.
Recent technologies have increased our ability to make a diamond reflect light. Today, many Diamonds are crafted in what is known as a "Brilliant" Cut. With 58 symmetrical planes, known as facets, these wonders mathematically maximize the fire and luster of a Diamond. Simply Brilliant.
In this section you will find additional information on what makes a Diamond special. A Diamond’s Shape, Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat all make significant contributions to the gem’s illustriousness.
Not to be confused with Cut, Shape refers to what a Diamond looks like when viewed from the top.
