Engagement Ring Advice For The Groom To Be
You would be surprised how many people do not know anything about the different cuts of diamonds that are out there, and the benefits of each. Most people if you ask what kind of diamond will give you a color and shape, not knowing it is much more than that. Here we are going to look at the various cuts of diamonds, which ones are most popular, and the terms used to describe them.
The most common cut for Engagement rings is a round cut. However, there are more than one type of round cuts. The number one ranking round cut is called a Brilliant cut, but a brilliant cut is only one out of the three main round cuts. A brilliant cut is known best for its many faces, most commonly seen in shapes like triangles and kites. The most spectacular thing about this diamond is that the faces (or facets) are all pointed outwards, which greatly enhances the way the light radiates through the diamond itself.
A step cut, has four-sided facets that are cut beneath the table of the diamond. The table, is the flat edge cut at the top of a diamond. The four facets are parallel to the diamonds girdle. Where the top or the crown of the diamond and the bottom or the pavilion of the diamond meet. In other words, it’s the point in between the coned and and the top of the diamond that is visible from an aerial view. There are less facets in this diamond than in a brilliant cut diamond.
An emerald cut is the same type of cut as a step cut, only with the corners removed. They are mostly rectangular shaped but size varies, they can be anything from a lean thin rectangle to a wide bulk square. A mixed cut diamond is cut with techniques from both a step and a brilliant cut. A mixed cut diamond is cut with techniques from both a step and a brilliant cut and are most popular in colored gems.
