When a Diamond is cut perfectly the facets are arranged in precise formations and proportions, this is what gives the Diamond a fantastic fire and sparkle as the light going through the Diamond can perform to its best.

Carat
Carat is often confused with size, but it is actually a measurement of weight.
The cut of a Diamond can make it appear to be larger or smaller than its weight. It's often assumed that a 2.00ct Diamond costs twice as much as a 1.00ct Diamond, however this isn't the case.
Colour
The colour of a Diamond is the one thing that you can see instantly.
