Diamond Clarity:
No
two diamonds are alike. A diamond's most distinguishing characteristics
are its inclusions, marks that are often invisible to the naked eye.
However, under a jeweler's magnifying loupe or microscope they can look
like crystals, tiny rivers, or clouds. A diamond's clarity is determined
by the presence or absence of inclusions--fewer inclusions mean better
clarity--and how visible they are. The greater a diamond's clarity, the
greater its brilliance and value. A diamond categorized as internally
flawless will have no inclusions, but this is extremely rare.
Diamond Color:
Though
diamonds come in a wide range of colors, colorless diamonds have
traditionally been considered the most valuable. Most diamonds are
graded on a scale using the letters of the alphabet, from D (colorless),
the best grade, through Z (a light yellow). It is difficult for the
untrained eye to notice such variations in color unless stones are being
compared side by side.
Diamond Carat Weight:
A
diamond's weight is measured in carats, with one carat being equivalent
to 100 points. You will often see a diamond referred to as a 3/4-carat
stone or a 75-point diamond. Larger stones are often more highly valued,
but size should not be the only consideration--high brilliance, which
varies according to clarity, cut, and color grade, is highly desirable
in a diamond.
Diamond Certification:
A
diamond certificate represents independent verification that the stone
purchased has all the qualities of cut, color, clarity, shape, and
weight expected. It is a further indication of the condition and value
of that diamond as represented on our site. Such certificates are issued
by several agencies employing highly trained gemologists and provide an
unbiased and accurate evaluation of the diamond. These gemologists
scrutinize each stone to analyze its dimensions, clarity, cut, color,
finish, symmetry, and other details.
Diamonds
purchased from the Amazon.com Collection may be certified by the
Gemological Institute of America or the International Gemological
Institute. The type of certificate provided will be noted in the product
specifications of your jewelry purchase; if you do not see a
certificate type noted, one will not be provided.
Our Diamond Policy:
Amazon.com
sources high-quality diamonds from some of the world's largest
suppliers. All our diamond suppliers certify that to their best
knowledge their diamonds are not conflict diamonds.
Diamond Care:
Diamonds,
as the hardest substance on earth, are resistant to damage. However,
diamond jewelry is set in different metals, and care will vary from
piece to piece. Diamonds should be cleaned in a solution of one part
ammonia to six parts water, using a gentle scrubbing brush to remove any
dirt. It is a good idea to have them cleaned once a year by a
professional jeweler, at which time the security of the setting can be
checked as well. Diamond jewelry should be stored in a soft cloth pouch
to ensure that the stone will not scratch other jewelry.
