| The cut gives each diamond its unique sparkle and brilliance by allowing the maximum amount of light to enter and reflect back out of the diamond.
When a diamond cutter is given a rough diamond to cut into a finished diamond he has a choice to make:
a. Will he cut the largest diamond that he can from the rough crystal or
b. Will he cut the brightest and most brilliant diamond that he can?
If he goes for the largest cut diamond, he will sacrifice some brilliance. If he goes for the most brilliant, he will sacrifice size. |
