Questions about Diamonds:
I’ve heard of the ‘Four C’s’ of diamonds, but is that all there is to it?
Hardly. In their search for stones that represent exceptional value and beauty, our expert gemologists look far beyond the familiar Four C’s of diamond grading. They look deeply into the diamond’s heart, because that’s where the ideal balance of cut, color and clarity is found. Many stones with excellent characteristics on paper simply don’t ‘make the cut’ with us – our visual standards for brilliance are that high, and the trained human eye captures the magic the numbers on paper cannot. Whether you choose an Amoro Eternitymark®, Pristine Hearts® or any of the other cuts we feature, you may be certain it has met the strictest quality assurance criteria.
After Cut, which is the more important characteristic – Color or Clarity?
Despite the objective scientific metrics involved, the answer to this question is purely subjective for most jewelry buyers. The fact is, diamond color and clarity are hard for the casual observer to ‘see’. Yet they can have a significant effect on stone value – so they’re not unimportant. Amoro adheres to very high color and clarity standards in all our diamond jewelry. Our flagship Eternitymark® Diamond line requires H color or better and VS2 or better clarity, while our Pristine Hearts® Diamonds range from D through H in color with VS2 or better clarity.
Why is there no A, B, or C in the diamond color grading system?
Like many things in life, the explanation involves some accidental factors. In the 1950’s, when the Gemological Institute of America introduced their new grading scale for diamond color, previous grading systems already relied on certain letters, numbers and descriptive words to express stone quality. To eliminate confusion with their new system, they designated a color range that skips A, B and C – instead beginning with color D (completely colorless) and ranging to color Z (very light yellow). We’re not so certain this eliminated confusion… but it’s been the way things work, every since.
