The four C’s are cut, clarity, color and carat weight. Each of these is just as important as the next, and vital for you to be aware of and keep in the back of your mind when you are looking at a diamond piece. The cut refers not to the shape of the diamond as some people think, but rather to how the diamond is cut and how much light refracts off of it.

The more light that refracts and reflects off the diamond, the better diamond it is, so if a stone is cut poorly, it will appear less valuable because it will lack sparkle. You don’t have to be a professional to be able to tell whether a diamond is cut well or not, and this is one of the first things that you are going to look for.

Then there is clarity, which refers to a diamond’s purity. The less flaws that a diamond has, the better it is and the more valuable it will be. When it comes to the color, this is also very important and the colorless diamonds are the most popular because they sparkle the most. Finally there is carat weight which tells you how valuable the diamond is.

Now that you are aware of how to buy a diamond bracelet, you should not have any problems and now instead of worrying that you are going to get ripped off or be too confused when you go out to buy a diamond bracelet, and instead can actually have some fun with it.

Most people when they imagine a pearl are picturing perfect large round spherical gems, creamy white in colour with a shimmery iridescent surface. The reality is that pearls are usually irregular in shape, each one is different and to find one that is completely round is almost unheard of, not to mention trying to make a whole necklace of pearls that are all more or less the same. Natural pearls are the rarest and most highly valued variety, but nowadays most pearl jewellery is made from cultured or farmed pearls, which are grown on pearl farms… Continue reading What are the Main Differences Between Freshwater and Saltwater Pearls?...
