OUR 4 C’s
Every Diamond is unique – the Four C’s identify the grade and the characteristics that define a diamond’s quality.
CUT
One of the first things we notice about a diamond, apart from its size, is the sparkle. The light play inside the diamond is what makes it so alluring.
COLOUR
Essential to the value of a diamond is the colour. The least amount of colour makes the whitest diamond. The whiter the Diamond, the more valuable the gem.
CLARITY
The clarity grade of a diamond refers to the internal inclusions or external markings of the gem. The placement, size and number of inclusions and markings through-out the gem directly relate to price and therefore value.
CARAT
A Diamond’s weight is meaured in carats. 1 carat is equal to 100 points. A diamond’s value is not determined by Carat alone. Cut, Colour and Clarity are equally considered.
