How to choose diamonds? Part II.

Diamonds are known for their portable wealth and are considered a valuable investment. However, it's important to choose the right diamond wisely. While most jewelry websites list a set of characteristics like cut, color, carat, and clarity, it's the combination of these features that defines a diamond's value. The interplay of these parameters should result in a beautiful stone, whether in a piece of jewelry or not.

For instance, let's consider two yellow diamonds weighing about 12 and 11 carats with the same clarity. While the color of the first diamond is Fancy Yellow, the second has a Fancy Light Yellow color. The color difference between the two diamonds may not be easily noticeable, but the Fancy Light Yellow diamond can cost less and be equally attractive.

Furthermore, the cut of a diamond can also play a crucial role in its overall appearance. For example, a Brilliant cut with most of the weight hidden in the pavilion may not reveal the full beauty of a yellow diamond, whereas a Modified Brilliant cut can display all the shades of color and brilliance.

Ultimately, the value of a diamond is in the eyes of the beholder, and it's essential to seek the opinion of a diamond expert or get an independent assessment before making a purchase. As a customer, your first impression is crucial, and you should choose a diamond that you find visually attractive and appealing.
