Diamond buying guide
For many people, a diamond is the largest purchase of their life. With that consideration,Carat Lane recognizes the importance of understanding exactly what you are buying.This guide simplifies the four Cs - cut, colour, clarity, and carat weight, as well as diamond shapes and certifications. After reading this guide, you will be better prepared to choose the diamond that is right for you.
The Cut is a measure of proportions of the diamond.
A well-cut diamond appears brilliant and fiery, while a badly cut diamond looks dull and lifeless, despite having a good colour and clarity grade. The Cut is a set of measurements based on how light travels within the diamond and exits from the top. The Cut is the only "man-made" C of the 4C's. (More)
The colour of a diamond is evaluated in terms of its degree of colourlessness.The ideal diamond is completely colourless, and the most expensive. However, most diamonds which appear colourless actually have slight tones of yellow or brown. (More)
Clarity is a measure of the cleanliness or purity of a diamond. A diamond's clarity rating is determined by the number, size, type and location of inclusions under 10 x magnifications. (More)
"Carat Weight" is simply the weight of the diamond. The Carat weight of a diamond determines the size, and appearance of your ring or jewellery. (More)
