Round Brilliant Diamonds And Evaluating Diamond Cut
Round diamonds are the most popular choice for Engagement Rings. Round Diamonds most efficiently manipulate light and therefore have the ability to provide the most shine and brilliance. A diamond's brilliance is determined by the way light behaves when it enters the top of the diamond. An excellent cut diamond will reflect all of the light that enters a diamond and provide the most shine and brilliance possible.
If a diamond is too shallow, a portion of the light will leave through the bottom of the stone and if the diamond is too deep, the light will be refracted out the side of the stone. This is why it is important to chose a diamond with a proper depth percentage to ensure brilliance.
Round diamonds are classified as excellent, ideal, very good, fair, and poor.
An excellent cut is the highest grade a diamond can receive from the Gemology Institute of American or GIA. Excellent Cut Diamonds have optimal proportions and give the most brilliance and light return.
An ideal cut diamond meets the most stringent requirements from the GIA. The diamond reflects all the light and returns the most brilliance possible.
A very good cut diamond has depth and table percentages that fall just outside the "ideal" requirements set by the GIA. This diamond returns almost all the light and is similar to an ideal cut diamond. A very good cut diamond will sell for less than an ideal cut diamond yet possess very similar characteristics
A good cut diamond reflects most of the light that enters it. A good cut diamond gives you good brilliance and will sell at a much lower price than an ideal or very good cut diamond. "Good" cuts are popular choices for engagement rings.
A fair cut diamond reflects a decent amount of light and will sell for much less than an ideal or very good cut diamond. A fair cut is a popular choice for people who want a decent cost savings to purchase a larger stone.
