Diamonds are the most precious and eternal stone available on the earth that reflects its brilliance and glitter on its wearer. For making an appropriate and intelligent purchase- a buyer must know about the 4 c’s of a diamond which ultimately determines the different grades of a diamond. Clarity- cut- carat and color are the four c’s that decides the grade of a diamond.

Clarity is the clearness or transparency of the diamond. The extent of diamond established the extent of its flaws and on the basis of the blemishes of each diamond an expert will decide about its shape and size that is visible from the naked eye. The value and worth of a diamond increases with less flaws and imperfections. So- clarity is an important element in deciding the worth of a diamond.
A well defined cut in a diamond decides its true worth as diamond in a raw form is nothing but a piece of glass. Generally- a cut in a diamond is done keeping the depth- symmetry and polish of the raw diamond in mind and on this particular basis a diamond gets its original shape and size. There are various shapes like round- emerald- pear- marquise and heart that distinguishes diamonds so- a suitable and promising cut in a diamond is really important factor in depicting the value of a diamond.

Carat or weight of a diamond is also a deciding factor in setting a grade of a diamond. Normally one carat is equivalent to 0.07 ounces that is equals to 200 milligrams. That’s why; increase in the weight of a diamond also increases the price of the diamond. And because of this very reason- it is always desirable to have a big diamond which is beautiful and of great worth too.
‘The lesser the better’- is the quote associated with diamond that establishes the price and value of a diamond. Diamonds are ranging from colorless to brown according that shows its worth and grade. The value and worth of a colorless diamond will be greater than other diamonds as it is free from any hues and flaws. Whereas- diamonds are also available in various colors such as pink- blue and green shades too.
So- the grade of a diamond is totally based upon the above mentioned 4c’s that not only settles its grade but also its true worth- value and correct price too. Now- you can evaluate yourself the true worth of your money that is really high and everlasting.
