The 4 C's are the basis of diamond quality and comparing engagement ring prices. The 4 C's cover the diamond cut, color, clarity and carat weight. We recommend you refer to the 4 C's when choosing the center stone for her engagement ring. Here are the 4 C's and some tips on how to buy a diamond.

Diamond Clarity - The 4 C's

Diamond clarity begins with flawless for a diamond that does not have any "flaws" or inclusions. Most diamonds have some flaws, feathers and specks in them that are visible under 10 X magnification or to the naked eye. The diamond clarity chart begins with flawless followed by VVS 1 (very, very slight flaws) and through the whole range of diamond clarities. These flaws dramatically affect diamond prices. Relax, it only takes a few minutes to learn the lingo and compare diamond prices based on diamond clarity.

Carat Weight - The 4 C's

The carat weight of loose diamonds is just that - how much the stone weighs. Not very exciting until you see the dramatic rise in price from a small quarter carat diamond to a one or two carat diamond. Loose diamonds allow couples to purchase the best diamond they can afford now and upgrade the center diamond in the future.

Diamond cut refers tot the shape of your diamond. Round brilliant diamonds are the most popular diamond cut and are available in many price ranges and sizes. It pays to price round diamonds even if you plan to buy a fancy cut diamond. The "fancy cut" diamonds include oval diamonds, emerald cuts, pear shaped diamonds, heart diamonds, marquis cuts, etc. Each diamond cut has it's own mystic and romance… Which diamond cut should you choose? Let you heart by your guide.

Diamond Color - The 4 C's

Diamond color is based on matching a diamond against a set of diamond color stones called "master" stones. The colors of the master stones (usually quartz) start range from colorless (best quality) to slightly yellowish followed by diamonds that are clearly yellow and brown diamonds. The diamond color chart starts with "D" for a colorless diamond, followed by E,F,G (slight yellowish tint) and H, I and J that are clearly yellowish. There are also fancy yellow diamonds, green diamonds, etc. We hope this guide to the 4 C's helps you buy the perfect engagement ring. Best Wishes!!!
