You may find yourself asking; “If diamonds are all unique and so rare, what determines the price difference between them?” In my experience the best method in determining diamond pricing is found in our name: “4C Diamond”. Each “C” has its own value CUT, COLOUR, CLARITY and CARAT WEIGHT. These 4 C’s of a diamond are the most important attributes of the stone and attribute to each unique diamond’s price.

DIAMETER - The width of the diamond as measured through the girdle.
CROWN - The upper portion oa a cut diamond, above the girdle.
TABLE - This is the large, flat top facet of a diamond.
GIRDLE - The narrow rim of a diamond that separates the crown form the pavillion.
PAVILION - The lower portion of the diamond, below the girdle. It is sometimes referred to as the base.
CULET - The tiny on the pointed bottom of the pavillion, which is the portion of a cut diamond below the girdle.
DEPTH - The height of a diamond, from the cutlet to the table.
