Tip No. 3 - Trust yourself, your eyes and your mind

Decide how you can spend your money more efficiently and where to save money while prioritizing. Please note that:

• A well-cut diamond reflects the maximum amount of light - the brilliance that you can see throughout the room.
• To appreciate the color, you need to be at a distance of 15-20 cm from the diamond.
• In turn, the degree of purity is noticeable only when viewed through a magnifying glass.

Tip No. 4 - Pay attention to the branch

The cut is the most vital of the 4C's rule: the finer the cut, the more extreme the luster of the diamond.

We offer 3 types of cut quality: Excellent, Very Good, Good.

More than 90% of buyers choose Excellent, Very Good and Good quality. A deficient cut (too shallow or too deep) can make an excellent diamond look flat.

Tip No. 5 - Consider the impact of cleanliness on cost

Most diamonds have slight flaws that can only be noticed at 10x magnification. For example, diamonds with SI clarity are not flawless but still look fantastic when considered with the bare eye.

Diamonds may have internal defects and/or external defects. The cleanliness rating scale varies from SI2-SI1 to IF.

It is best to start your search for a diamond ( diamond catalogue) with a clarity grade SI2 and SI1. Diamonds of this clarity proffers greatest brilliance and lower your budget.

The most popular are the purity groups: VVS2, VS1, VS2, SI1.

Tip No. 6 - Diamond Color

Think about it: not always completely colorless diamonds are better than diamonds with light shades of color.

A diamond extremely rarely lacks a color shade, and thus, its absence creates the diamond much more costly. The color of diamonds in the Diamond Gallery is graded from K (warm shades of color) to D (colorless).

To get a good price and quality, opt for colors E (2nd color according to GOST), F (3rd color according to GOST) or G (4th color according to GOST), which are almost colorless.

The different color of gold in the setting (white, red, yellow, pink) will affect the perception of the color of your diamond. Depending on this, it will seem whiter or more genial. Hence, regarding this fact when picking a frame color.

Tip No. 7 - Consider the pros and cons of choosing a higher carat weight

While you may be tuned into a specific carat weight group, a heavy stone is sometimes not the right choice.

Indeed, is it important that the stone you are buying was of a certain carat specified in its certificate, or would you be more satisfied with a diamond that looks like a stone with a larger weight in size?

Carat is more about weight than size.

How large a diamond looks in a ring depends on the balance of proportions (finger size, dimensions of the ring itself). Sometimes, a lighter carat weight is a better choice.

Tip No. 8 - Look out for fancy cut diamonds

The round diamond shape is the most famous, but other shapes should not be led out. All non-round diamonds are called fancy diamonds.

Fancy shape diamonds can look larger (or smaller) and cost less (or more) than a circle of similar weight. There are 9 fantasy shapes: princess, emerald, Asscher, cushion, marquise, radiant, oval, pear and heart.

Why are round shapes usually more expensive? Difficult to explain, but in essence, it boils down to the established standards for cutting the "circle" shape, the strict observance of which is higher labor costs.

Round Brilliant Diamonds are the only cut in which the ratio of all geometric parameters is regulated by the GIA standards. There are also strict parameters for fancy shape diamonds, but these are not standardized in the industry.

Tip No. 9 - You can save and Get the same

Sometimes it is not worth fighting for high performance, it may be better to opt for larger diamond weight.

Pay attention to stones with a weight close to the higher value group (eg 0.35ct, 0.48ct, 0.68ct), to the so-called “breakpoints” sometimes called “oversize”. The visual difference between 0.45 and 0.52 carats is almost imperceptible to the eye, but by choosing a weight of up to 0.50Ct, you can cut your budget. Gemistone offers a wide variety of these diamonds - much more than you might find in other stores.
