Diamond GRADING
The 4 C’s Carat, Colour, Clarity and Cut determine the value of a diamond. These essential characteristics are described in the diamond certificate. A fifth C of Confidence is added to reflect the importance attached to the
consumers
knowing exactly what it is they are purchasing: a natural and not colour enhanced diamond.
COLOUR Diamonds occur in all sorts of colours, ranging from brownish to striking yellow, pink to purple, red and blue. These are called “fancy colours”. Colourless diamonds may look colourless to the naked eye, but upon closer inspection may show that they have a yellowish or brownish hue. The colour grade of a diamond is determined by comparing with a series of master stones. The highest grade is given to a colourless diamond. Besides colour, the fluorescence of a diamond is also graded. Certain diamonds react to ‘black light’, with grades varying from nil, slight, medium or strong to very strong.
CARAT For the weight we use the term ‘carat’. The name carat originates from the seeds of the Carob tree, which has been used for hundreds of years for their exact same weight. Those seeds all have a weight of 0.2 gram. 1 carat = 0.2 gram 1 carat = 100 points 1 point = 0.01 carat
CLARITY Each diamond is unique. A close look at its clarity shows traces of its growth history. Those traces form a fingerprint of the diamond. Almost all diamonds have a minimal trace of not crystallised carbon or other minerals. Most of these inclusions are not visible to the naked eye, but can be seen under a 10x magnifying glass. The less inclusions a diamond has, the higher the diamond value. One that does not show any inclusions is rare and is called ‘perfect’ or ‘loupe clean’. It is therefore possible for a smaller but perfectly cut diamond of a whiter colour and flawless clarity to be more valuable than a larger stone that is less white and has more inclusions.
CUT A diamond can be cut in various shapes, such as a brilliant, Gassan 121, square, pear or heart. The round brilliant is probably the best-known shape. A diamond’s cut is perfect when proportions, symmetry and polish are all perfect. The proportions are determinative for their brilliance, fire, and dispersion. The symmetry describes the variations of the different parameters, which define the proportions. The polish describes the finish of the facets.
CONFIDENCE The first step in purchasing a diamond is finding a reputable jeweller, a professional who can guarantee a reliable, natural and quality product. An expert who takes time and pleasure informing clients on all there is to know about the magnificent sparkling diamond. Since 1946 the family company Gassan Diamonds has proven its expertise on diamonds by perfecting the art of bringing maximum life to the brilliant cut diamond. One of their latest products is the patented breathtaking cut ‘the Gassan 121’, with 121 facets for optimal reflection. Undoubtedly the tradition of perfection will continue at Gassan Diamonds for many generations to come.
