Diamonds and The Four C's?
The key in finding a diamond is to know what to look for. First, set a budget while also being mindful to the beauty of the diamond. When buying a diamond, you have to consider the four C’s: cut, carat weight, color and clarity. Try using and considering multiple combinations of these four characters, and remember that if the deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is. The cut is what you should decide on first. Do you want emerald, tear drop, princess, marquise, radiant, pear, oval, round or heart shaped? After you have determined your cut, decide on the carat weight. Diamonds and other gemstones are weighed using metric carats, with one carat weighing about the same as a small paper clip, or 0.2 grams. Just as a dollar is divided into 100 pennies, a carat is divided into 100 points, which means that a diamond of 50 points weighs 0.50 carats. The majority of diamonds used in fine jewelry weigh one carat or less. Even a fraction of a carat can represent a considerable difference in cost when purchasing diamonds, exact precision is crucial. In the diamond industry, weight is measured to a thousandth of a carat and rounded to the nearest hundredth. Each hundredth is called a point. Diamond weights greater than one carat are expressed in carats and decimals. Diamonds are valued by how close to colorless they are. If buying from a regular jewelry store, diamonds run from colorless to near-colorless, with some having hints of yellow and brown. GIA’s diamond color-grading scale is the industry’s most accepted grading system. This scale begins with the letter D, which represents colorless, and progresses with increasing presence of color to the letter Z. Most color distinctions are so subtle that they are unrecognizable to the untrained eye. However, they do make a big difference in price and quality. The last C is clarity. Since most diamonds are created deep within the earth, they have unique markings called inclusions or blemishes. Inclusions are located internally in the diamond, and blemishes exist externally. There is an International diamond grading system that gives diamonds a clarity grade, ranging from flawless or FL to I3 which are diamonds including inclusions. There are eleven grades on the GIA Clarity scale. These grades are magnified 10 times and most diamonds fall into the VS or SI category. Purchasing a diamond is very serious business, so make sure to get your budget together and decide on what the most important features are to you or the person that you are buying if for.
