Anatomy of a Diamond – The Cut

by Robyn Hawk on September 29, 2012


Cut is the factor that fuels a diamond’s fire, sparkle and brilliance.

“The cut of any diamond has three attributes: brilliance (the total light reflected from a diamond), fire (the dispersion of light into the colors of the spectrum), and scintillation (the flashes of light, or sparkle, when a diamond is moved).”
