Round Brilliant

by Commins & Co on June 21, 2023

A round brilliant cut diamond is a diamond cut with a round shape and 58 facets, designed to maximize the diamond’s sparkle and brilliance. These diamonds are characterized by their exceptional fire and scintillation, making them a popular choice for engagement rings and other fine jewellery. The cut is achieved by skilfully polishing the diamond’s crown and pavilion to enhance its natural light-reflecting properties. The result is a diamond that sparkles with a fiery radiance and captivates the eye with its mesmerizing beauty. The precision and craftsmanship required to create a brilliant cut diamond make it a true work of art.

How do the 4 Cs of Diamonds Affect Round Cut Diamonds?

The 4Cs of diamonds – carat weight, cut, color, and clarity – each have a significant impact on the overall appearance and value of a round cut diamond.

Carat weight refers to the size and weight of the diamond and can influence the price of the stone. As round cut diamonds tend to be deeper than other diamond shapes, a diamond with a higher carat weight may appear smaller than a diamond of the same weight but with a different cut.

Cut refers to how the diamond has been cut and polished, and has a significant impact on the diamond’s sparkle and brilliance. The round cut diamond is known for its brilliant cut, which maximizes its fire and brilliance. A well-cut round diamond will have a symmetrical shape with excellent proportions and a well-defined pattern of light and dark areas.

Colour refers to the natural hue of the diamond and can range from colourless to yellow or brown. In general, a round cut diamond with less colour will be more valuable than one with more color. However, a small amount of color in a round cut diamond can add warmth and character to the stone.

Finally, Clarity refers to the presence of internal or external blemishes or inclusionsRound cut diamonds tend to hide inclusions better than other shapes due to their cut, but a diamond with a high clarity rating will still be more valuable than one with visible inclusions.

Overall, each of the 4Cs plays a crucial role in determining the quality and value of a round cut diamond.
