A Brilliant Cut Diamond By Any Other Name Is Not a Brilliant Cut Diamond!
To be clear these gems go by a number of variations in their name.

There may be some other variations, but those are the most commonly used and recognized.

Sorry folks, but either a diamond is a Brilliant Cut Diamond or it isn't; there is no inbetween! The safest way to know that you are dealing with a genuine Brilliant Cut Diamond is to learn about Brilliants.

What You Should Know About
Brilliant Cut Diamonds
What are brilliant cut diamonds you ask? Brilliant cut diamonds are gemstones that are cut to a standard of fifty-eight facets, or faces, that magnificently reflect light.

Thirty-three of those facets are on the crown, or top portion, and the other twenty-five facets are on the pavilion, which is the bottom half of the stone.

This intricately complex cut is what separates these diamonds from all others. This cut is overwhelmingly essential to the gem's breathtaking fire, magic sparkle and unmistakable brilliance.

When examining, evaluating and appraising diamonds, brilliance is the measurement of the amount of light allowed to enter a stone and how the angles cut into the stone reflect that light back out to the naked eye.

What Determines A Diamond's Sparkle?
Essentially, the type of cut determines how much brilliance a diamond will display. The right cut can mean a diamond that literally glistens at any angle.

The wrong cut can mean that you end up with an expensive diamond that resembles fashion jewelry found in one of the “everything is a dollar” bargain stores. If you’re paying for a precious gemstone, then that’s what you should get and that’s exactly what Brilliant Cut Diamonds give you.

To be perfectly honest, that’s what you should look for in a precious gemstone – a fiery sparkle with magical brilliance! If not, then you probably don’t need a diamond. You could probably settle for a common gem such as an Amethyst, Sapphire, Citrine or a Tsavorite Garnet.

What is so special about Brilliant Cut Diamonds? It starts with the special intricate cut. You need to be made aware that not all diamonds are cut to this meticulous standard.

That’s why not all diamonds have the distinction and right to be classified as Brilliant Cut Diamonds. If you are shopping for a diamond then you’ve heard about the 4 C’s of diamonds. The 4 C’s, Cut, Clarity, Color and Carat are perfectly showcased in the brilliant cut diamonds.

Which is The Best Brilliant Cut Diamond?
Of all of the Brilliant Cut Diamonds, the round brilliant cut is the shape that truly maximizes a gem's sparkle.

Traditionally, diamonds cut into this shape are often used in solitaire, four-prong settings to display their dazzling brilliance. Just so you know, the other brilliant cut shapes are also highly touted, yet they are not as popular as the round.

You'll Be Glad You Purchased a Brilliant Cut Diamond
The decision to purchase this luxurious precision cut precious gemstone for your engagement ring, wedding band, diamond necklace or for your other favorite piece of fine jewelry may be the easiest decision you will have to make. Brilliant cut diamonds are without a doubt the top of the line when it comes to fine jewelry.

I Hate To Drop Names But Look Who Loves Brilliant Cut Diamonds
