Be sure that you are always comparing apples with apples or in this case diamonds with diamonds. Even though every diamond is unique there are generally four characteristics that diamonds get measured by, commonly known as the 4 C’s.

COLOUR
The most desirable diamonds are those which have the least amount of colour. Quite often however diamonds will have a tint of yellow or brown. Generally, diamond colour can be divided into four categories. |
|
CUT
A diamonds cut is undeniably the most important of the 4 C’s. Even with close to perfect colour, size and clarity if a diamonds cut is not in correct proportions all other characteristics will not be as highly valued. |
|
CLARITY
The clarity of a diamond is what ultimately makes it unique as no two diamonds have the same markings or inclusions in the same area. The degree in which they are visible is what determines their value, for example a diamond which has no inclusions is rare and will be reflected in the price. |

CARAT WEIGHT
A diamonds weight is measured in carats and is the easiest of the 4 C’s to measure. A carat is equal to 100 points or approximately 0.2 grams. The higher the carat weight the more valuable and rare the diamond. It is worth noting that a 2ct diamond will be more valuable than two 1ct diamonds as finding larger rough diamonds is not as common. |
|
DIAMOND SETTING
There are numerous ways in which a diamond can be set. Here you will find illustrations and brief descriptions on the options available. |
|
