There are various aspects which are to be considered before a diamond is chosen. Certain merchants make sure that these aspects are explained to the customer before selling a diamond. But it is always better for the customer to be aware of these details before going for purchasing a ring.
Some of the most beautiful rings available in the market these days satisfy the criteria of certain standards marked by associations to be termed to one amongst the most flawless. The aspects which are considered for standardizing are known as the 4C's:
* Carat* Color * Clarity* CutThe carat is the most important aspect when a customer wants to buy diamond engagement ring. Just because a diamond is of larger carat it doesn't mean that the stone is of greater quality this is common notion which is present by most common users. A diamond is measured using the unit carat. Every 200 milligrams of a diamond is called a carat. Every customer has to keep in mind the carat of the stone they want to buy.
Many wonder about the sparkle to give when they are shone and cut. But the aspect which actually the sparkle is mainly diamond's color. This shows the diamonds true grade and standard even if it has been falsely graded. An engagement ring with fabulous sparkle and color even if graded falsely will clearly show its true quality and it has many qualities of illusions too. The best example for showing how a diamond ring can act as an optical illusion is that an oval shaped loose diamond placed in a diamond eternity ring can actually make the finger and the hand look more slender and beautiful.
When a diamond is very clear and flawless it tends to refract and reflect more light. Here the light reflected is more prominent than the light reflected from a diamond which has color. This does not mean that colored diamonds are less attractive but when designing a diamond wedding ring or a stud for a special occasion customers prefer colorless diamonds.
When special loose diamonds are used for designing diamond engagement rings, it is made sure that the clarity of the diamond is checked. There are two types of preferences when a diamond is chosen for such an important occasion. The first kind is when crystal clear diamonds are chosen to symbolize the clarity of the future and bond between the couple. The second kind is when diamonds are chosen for their lack of plainness and flaws are seen as an integral part of a natural substance.
Though all the above specifications can make a loose diamond beautiful by itself, the Cut is the most important aspect which makes the jewel look outstanding. Let the jewel be a diamond stud or a diamond anniversary ring, only if the diamond being used is cut accurately, it will look fabulous.
These are the 4C's which are most important when choosing a diamond for a special occasion and if these aspects are chosen properly the chances of choosing a dull diamond is almost null.
