When shopping for an engagement ring with a diamond, it is important to remember the "4 Cs" of diamonds: Cut, Clarity, Colour, and Carat weight.
Cut: A polished diamond's beauty lies in its complex relationship with light. The magnificent display you see is made up of three attributes: Brightness is the combination of all white light reflecting from the surface and interior of a diamond. Fire describes the "flares" of colour emitted from a diamond. Scintillation describes the pattern of light and dark areas and the sparkle you see when the diamond, the light or the observer moves.
A diamond's proportions affect its light performance, which in turn affects its beauty and overall appeal. Diamonds with fine proportions, symmetry, and polish optimize their interaction with light, and have increased brightness, fire and scintillation.
Clarity: Clarity refers to the number and size of inclusions (flaws) in a diamond. A flawless diamond is extremely rare and, therefore, very valuable. However, most diamonds will have some inclusions visible under magnification. An experienced jeweller can help you choose a diamond with inclusions that are not visible to the naked eye.
Colour: Diamonds are graded on a scale from D (colourless) to Z (light yellow or brown). Diamonds with little to no colour are rarer and more valuable than those with shades of yellow or brown.
Carat weight: Carat weight is how a diamond is measured and is an important consideration when shopping for a diamond ring. Remember that carat weight is not the same as size; two diamonds of different shapes can have the same carat weight but appear different in size when viewed from above. When shopping for a diamond engagement or wedding ring, pay attention to the carat weight of the individual diamonds and the total carat weight of all the diamonds in the piece.
One carat equals 200 milligrams in weight. For diamonds under one carat, each carat is divided into 100 points - similar to cents in a dollar. 0.75ct. = 75 points, 1/2 ct. = 50 points.
The 4Cs provide a way to objectively compare and evaluate diamonds, but numbers alone can't describe a diamonds mysterious and captivating beauty- for that you'll have to visit Gallerie Jewellery to see one for yourself!
Natural diamonds are a wonder of science, as they occur only when atoms of carbon are exposed to high pressures and temperatures about 100 miles (160 kilometres) below the Earth's surface in what geologists call the upper mantle. Diamonds reside in these extreme mantle conditions for millions of years. The crystals that grow under these conditions have a unique structure we associate with natural diamonds.
Natural diamond crystals sometimes incorporate solid small inclusions of diamonds or other minerals into their structure as they grow. While mineral inclusions are often considered a negative clarity feature in a polished diamond, they are of tremendous value to geoscientists. These minerals are the only direct samples that geoscientists have to study the deep Earth that cannot be accessed in any other way. Natural diamonds provide a way for these mineral inclusions to be preserved and brought to the Earth's surface where they can be scientifically studied. Because certain inclusions contain radioactive elements that decay at a known rate, the minerals can also be used to calculate the age of diamond formation.
Following their extended time in residence in the mantle, diamonds are brought to the Earth's surface by rare volcanic eruptions known as kimberlite. Geologists believe that the diamonds are transported very quickly over the 100-mile distance (in approximately a week), so that the diamonds are not physically changed in the process and transformed to graphite. During this rapid upward journey, the diamond crystal can, however, break along cleavage directions and undergo other changes that may affect, for example, its colour.
Lab-grown diamonds are not only ethical and sustainable, but they can also be a fun and exciting choice for those in the market for a diamond. Here are some fun facts about lab-grown diamonds:
They are made in a lab: Lab-grown diamonds are created in a controlled environment, using technology that mimics the high pressure and high temperature conditions that occur naturally in the Earth's mantle. This means that they are not dug out of the ground like traditional diamonds, but rather are grown in a lab.
They are chemically identical to natural diamonds: Lab-grown diamonds have the same chemical and physical properties as natural diamonds, meaning they are just as hard and durable. They also have the same sparkle and brilliance as natural diamonds.
They come in a range of colours: While most natural diamonds are white or colourless, lab-grown diamonds can be made in a range of colours, including pink, yellow, and blue. This is because the process of growing a diamond in a lab allows for more control over the colour and clarity of the diamond. Because lab-grown diamonds can be produced more efficiently than natural diamonds, they are often less expensive. This means that consumers can get a bigger or higher quality diamond for their money.
Overall, lab-grown diamonds are an affordable and exciting option for those in the market for a diamond. They offer the same beauty and durability as natural diamonds, while also being more ethical, sustainable, and affordable.
