you what is behind the famous four c. it is all about cut clarity colour and carats and where better to come than Graffdaimonds that has handled some of the most important daimond of our time as well as offering an array and choice like very few others can? the first c to think about when choosing a daimond is the cut now the cut determines the shape of the daimond as well as it is brilliance because different cut have differing numbers of facets and it is these facets that give the daimond it is sparkle think think of facets like reflective surface that shine light through the daimond there are mango differant daimond cuts to choose from so i will tell you the most important point for each one the round brilliant cut is the most popular cut for egagmentring and i think you can see why it is because it give a nice shape on the hand and it has an awful lot of brilliance as well thanks to it is 57 facet the oval shape is in fact a variant of the brilliant cut so it is got lots of brilliance and sparkle but it suits petite hand a little bit better the pear shape is a really feminine cut i think and it work beautifully on petite hand because it is got the pointedend it has the effect of elongating the fimger the antique style of the cushion cut has gained favour in the past few year and i think itis because it is that nice combination of a very precise modern cut but with a nice sort ofold fashioned air about it these long clean lines which make it have a sort of deep shine as opposed to a brighter sparkle and emerald cut suit hand like mine which are quite large and with long finger so that is the one for me once you have decided the cut of the daimond it is really important that you make sure that you buy a goo quality cut because it is the precision of the cut that determinesnow much brilliance you get from a daimond now Graff will only sell cuts that are form excellect to good whoch mean that you are making the very most of that investment
