Round-Cut Diamonds: The World's Most Exquisite Kind

IMG-3063 (1).png

Diamonds are loved by most worldwide. They symbolize love, are gifted to those we care for most, and hold immense value; however, not all diamonds are equal. The round-cut diamond rises above the rest of the most elegant, versatile, and sought-after diamond shapes worldwide. 

The type of stone rose to fame in the early 1900s with Marcel Tolkowsky's book "Diamond Design: A Study of the Reflection and Refraction of Light in Diamond. The book showcased some of the best practices relating to cuts and impacted the manufacturing industry across the globe.  

To this day, round-cut diamonds are the most popular type of diamond. Its shape and brightness make it the most popular shape, and it accounts for close to 75% of all diamond sales. 

 

Round-Cut Diamond Grades

Round diamonds come with grades that help distinguish the quality of the cut. The stone's angles and how well it was polished all contribute to the grade it is given. This is important because it impacts how sparkly your stone is, and it is arguable one of the most crucial aspects of purchasing a diamond. 

The varying grades are as follows:

  • Excellent

  • Very good

  • Good

  • Fair

  • Poor

An excellent cut is the best kind of round cut diamond, and a poor cut diamond is the worst. 

 

Why a Round Cut Diamond is the Best

Various features can help you determine the quality of a diamond and the legitimacy of your diamond jewelers. Use the below as a guide to help you when you shop:

 

Brilliance

This is what makes the diamond shine and sparkle. This effect is produced by white light reflecting off the stone and into your eyes. A well-cut round diamond will sparkle like nothing you have seen before, so keep an eye out for this. 

Beauty

Round cut diamonds are cut with 58 facets, and for over 100 years, the process has been perfected by diamond jewelers worldwide. For this reason, these diamonds produce the most exquisite look. 

Fire 

Fire is the amount of colored light produced by the diamond, and this gives the diamond depth and character beyond a simple shine. No diamond does this better than the round-cut diamond. 

Timeless appearance

It is often said that a round-cut diamond will never go out of fashion. It is timeless. Whether purchasing a diamond for a bracelet, necklace, or the classic engagement ring – this style is elegant and will be valued for generations to come. 

Versatility 

This classic design complements many styles. Round cut diamonds are one of the best sought-after stones for this reason.
