Buying a diamond is more than just purchasing jewellery — it is an emotional investment, a symbol of love, elegance, and timeless luxury. Whether you are buying an engagement ring, diamond necklace, or a luxury gift, understanding diamonds helps you make a confident decision.
At Keian Luxandor, we believe every diamond should reflect brilliance, beauty, and individuality. This guide will help you understand the essential factors before choosing the perfect diamond.
Understanding the 4Cs of Diamonds
The quality and value of a diamond are determined by the famous 4Cs:
1. Cut
The cut determines how brilliantly a diamond reflects light. A well-cut diamond appears more sparkling and luxurious.
Popular cuts include:
Round Brilliant
Princess
Oval
Emerald
Cushion
Pear
Among all shapes, the Round Brilliant Cut offers maximum sparkle.
2. Color
Diamond color ranges from D (colorless) to Z (light yellow).
D-F: Premium colorless diamonds
G-H: Near colorless and excellent value
I-J: Slight warmth but budget friendly
Luxury jewellery buyers often prefer D to H color diamonds for elegance and brilliance.
3. Clarity
Clarity measures the internal inclusions and external blemishes in a diamond.
Common clarity grades:
FL (Flawless)
IF (Internally Flawless)
VVS1/VVS2
VS1/VS2
SI1/SI2
For premium jewellery, VS and VVS diamonds are highly recommended.
4. Carat Weight
Carat refers to the weight of the diamond.
Popular choices:
0.50 Carat
1 Carat
2 Carat
5 Carat+
Larger diamonds are rare and highly valuable, especially when combined with excellent cut and clarity.
