What to Look for in a Diamond

When looking to purchase a diamond there are a few things to consider. Most importantly the 4 C’s which are cut, colour, clarity and carat. Additionally, it is vital that the certificate declares that the dimensions of a diamond are at least “very good”. If a diamond is polished too deep or too shallow, the light entering a diamond will not reflect back through the top. This will make the diamond appear dull and it will loose brilliance (as indicated in the below diagram):
