The Cut

The cut refers to the angle and the proportion of the stone. The cut is one of the most important things to consider when buying a diamond engagement rings. A well cut diamond has a mirror like facets which reflect the light and gives the diamond its sparkling look. This quality is known as brilliance.

The colour

Clarity of the diamond
