Aside from the unreasonable worth placed on diamonds because of their magnificent beauty, they can also perform exceptionally well under differing lighting formats. A diamond’s cut is one of the best parts about them since it determines the amount of light that enters, interacts, and exits from them, creating shine, fire, and sparkle. At Rare Carat, we know that a good performing diamond is more than just weight and clarity. The cut of a diamond is also crucial as it determines how well the diamond performs under various lighting conditions.
The cut of a diamond describes the manner in which it has been polished and shaped. It is different from the shape of the diamond which represents its general shape such as round, square or oval. Cut is one of the more important factors that affect a diamond. A diamond’s proportions, symmetry, and polish are all parts of the cut and in one way or another, affects the flooding light impact on the diamond. The diamonds with the best casts can let light to be channeled from the upper part and keep bouncing off the internal facets ensuring that the diamond looks radiant and brilliant.
At Rare Carat, the cut of the diamond remains as the strongest factor affecting a diamond’s overall beauty. Diamonds are fitted into a grading system which ranges from ‘Excellent’ to ‘Poor’ cut quality. Diamonds with excellent cuts tend to perform the best in all lighting conditions.
The diamond’s performance varies depending on the light source. The shape of the diamond should be able to function in many kinds of lights such as; daylight, incandescent light, fluorescent light, and more. Let’s see how the cut of a diamond performs under various light conditions.
Out of all types of lights used to display a diamond, natural light can be cited as the best option due to its ability to showcase a diamond’s sparkle. A well-cut diamond with an Excellent cut can achieve maximum sparkle and color displays.
Diamonds that have been graded Excellent cut shine the best under natural light because the depression of the stone makes it suitable for this lighting. Unfortunately, a poorly cut diamond does look dull and lacks luster as it fails to reflect enough light.
According to Rare Carat, diamonds with the best polish grade get recommended for light conditions because these show off the contours of a diamond the best and a diamond with a high polish grade would look exceptional.
Incandescent light gives out a warm orange or yellow color. This also tends to enhance the fire of a diamond, making it look more colorful and exotic. Diamonds also show exihibition of fire due to their cuts and under this type of light, the diamond cut plays a huge factor in how much fire or light is exhibited. Shallow cut diamonds reflect light brilliantly but exhibit lesser fire than deep cuts. Deep cuts do exhibit more fire but only due to the overwhelming amount of multi angled light interaction within its many facets.
However, there is either a too deep or too overly shallow diamond cut that is doomed to fail in incandescent lighting. A diamond that is too shallow lets too much light escape from the bottom causing it to lose brilliance while a diamond that is too deep confines light resulting in no reflection causing dullness of fire.
To solve the issues listed above, Rare Carat fixes the measurements of the diamond depth and table so that the diamond achieves the balance of fire and brilliance that is desired under incandescent lighting.
Fluorescent lighting comes with a cool bluish tinge, which can affect a diamond’s look. With mildly fluorescent stones, diamonds under such lighting may look a little more colorful because the blue light can make the diamond more brilliant. On the other hand some diamonds may get the illusion of becoming cloudy or hazy because of the strong fluorescence some diamonds tend to possess.
Depending on the diamond, its cut can also affect performance greatly with diamonds showcasing brilliance under fluorescent lighting. For some, a shimmering diamond will be stunning, but the softer effect of fluorescence may showcase some appeal toward others.
We here at Rare Carat offer in-depth analysis of fluorescence for each diamond so that buyers can make an informed decision considering how fluorescence would impact the diamond under different lighting scenarios.
It is easy to get swept away in all the details such as carat weight, color and clarity when purchasing a diamond, but the cut is what impacts its performance the most.
