Most of us are unaware of some basic concepts related to diamond jewellery such as inclusions, grading scales, colours and certificates to name a few. A sound knowledge of diamonds is indeed necessary before anyone proceeds to the jewellery shop or an online shopping portal.

Diamonds are judged on the “Four Cs”, which are cut, colour, carat weight and clarity. One more C, which is equally important is Certificate. The quality and brilliance of a diamond jewellery is dependent upon its cut. The diamonds that contain any inclusions or inner flaws, which are caused during the formation process are not of high quality and are therefore cheap.

In the diamonds market, a colourless diamond is more precious than a coloured diamond since it allows optimum light refraction. The carat weight is the weight of the diamond and the price of a diamond is in complete proportion to its size. As far as the certificates are concerned, they are highly important since they evaluate the overall quality of a diamond. The certificate contains information about the diamond’s individual and recognisable characteristics.

A diamond is considered to be a perfect gift on a number of occasions. It can be gifted to a beloved, mother, sister, aunt and even daughter. The occasion may be birthday, marriage, engagement, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day or Sister’s Day.
