 The versatile luster of the diamond makes women thrill and
men be delighted with the chance to make the woman happy and pleased while the
businessmen can be sure to make a good investment. The interest to the diamonds
increased with the latest technologies improved in the sphere of diamond
faceting in the early XX century. The precious stone is faceted with more than
seventeen facets turning into the amazing jewelry item. And, thus, the diamond
fever began in its time.
Diamonds and diamond jewelry are presented for the reason
and unreasonably. This is a kind of universal gift to make any person happy and
delighted. The issue to purchase diamonds and be sure in the purity of the
latter is not so difficult to settle. The entire process of purchase needs to
be accurate and appropriate without any fuss and rush.
What to begin with?
Diamond jewelry as well as diamond stones are available for
every different style and taste. When stones are presented, there is nothing to
do with the design of the jewelry or the brand. Everything depends upon the
personal preferences and financial abilities. The other question to solve is
the place where the real diamonds are purchased:
Jewelry houses to be the official representatives of reputed
brands like Tuffany&Co, Damiani and Chopard;
-
Specialized jewelry houses where the certificates for
jewelry are provided;
-
Auction Houses though affordable by collectors and
authorities;
-
There are plenty of people in theory though doubtful enough
to trust;
-
Small shops or counters at molls where the ourchase of
diamonds is not recommended at all;
Internet shops with new and doubtful activity though there
are some eligible and reliable to work with. Once you want to purchase diamonds
online, all the issues should be controlled and verified to avoid fake and
fraud. First, consider the address of the internet site when the url address
has a protective letter s like https://... Second, the comments and feedback
from the real buyers are also significant being thousands in umber, not less
with positive than negative opinions;
You don’t need
to put yourself to risk unreasonably, though, since when you can touch and
check the diamond, it is far more pleasant and decisive to make a purchase.
Specific
procedure to choose diamonds
Once you
define with the place to purchase diamonds, you keep from rushing to the
biggest stone that shines. Brilliance is not the quality. The quality of the real diamond depends on several
parameters as weight, color, purity rate and faceting.
Carat, the weight
of the precious stone equals to approximately 0,2 grams. The popular
belief that the more carats have diamonds - the better is erroneous in most
cases, especially when the other three parameters are not ideal to match. Stones
weighing one carat or five grams are deemed large gems.
There is the
special scale to identify colors with separate nominations for the intensity of
shade for fancy or colorful diamonds. So, the symbols D, E, F,G, H indicate the
transparent white diamonds with the blue tint and the person not expert in
diamonds is not able to identify the finest difference between them. The other letters
state the availability of the yellow tinge though the diamonds are ten times as
cheap. The color diamonds are far more expensive for they are rare in nature.
Purity is the
factor of availability or absence of inclusions like air bubbles, crystals and
so forth in the stone. The special scale is used for identification from Flawless
rate is given to absolutely pure but rare diamond Included when inclusions are
visually seen. When the strange particles are seen at magnification at the
superficial side of the diamond, you’d better consider your decision to buy the
stone in favor of the purer stone of the other color of less value, though.
The
faceting makes the stone precious and the diamond is shaped and shines
reflecting the light. The faceting is
defined by the quality and performance. There are four quality evaluation
techniques from А for the excellent to D as for the less good. The shapes include the rounded,
princess, usher and heart, totaling ten standard faceting techniques. The most
demanded is the round diamond since the match if its facets gives the best
luster and is appropriate for all jewelry accessories. But there are
exclusive types of faceting. Thus,
Robert Cohen invented the unique technique to make the diamonds shaped with
hundreds of facets while the classic facet total in 57 only. The diamond he made plays with theastonishing luster.
The quality
of faceting is possible to define with the sheet of paper with printed text.
When the round diamond is put onto the sheet of paper, all the fifty seven
facets will reflect the letters in the way that the paper seems completely clean
under the stone. However, the intensity of brilliance is not the factor to
classify the authenticity of the diamond since the diamond substitutes like
fianit and moissanite with higher reflective capacity.
The symmetry
of facets and the number on the superficial part of the diamond can be
verified. Fake diamonds show not more than nine visual facets made in deviation
from the perfection.
The jewelry
with the diamond from the reputed brands is better to purchase in the country
of the manufacturer.
The label on
the jewelry should tell NATURAL and no other words like almost NATURAL and
other confusing words.
The diamond
in the jewelry should be seen from all angles and the frame should be
ring-shaped without walls. Otherwise the lower part of the stone will be
covered and it will not shine and play at all. If a crack is noted, it should be
of stepwise structure while it is more like snail-shaped with the glass.
With the
fake diamond the stripe of the fatty substance applied to the stone comes to
drops while the genuine diamond will have the even trace of it.
There are also
cultivated diamonds though they have nothing to do with glassy fake jewelry and
sometimes they show far better quality parameters as compared with the natural
diamonds. This is the special cultivation technology which is done in
laboratories and scientific institutes. And such diamonds are rare to see in
common stores.
