Princess

Cushion
By combining a square cut with rounded corners diamond cutters create a diamond-shaped much like a pillow or cushion. This cut is perfect for traditional ring settings.
Oval
Oval cut loose diamonds create the illusion of a larger size stone, whilst the slender shape creates a desirous effect of longer and slightly slimmer finger lines.
Pear
A combination cut between a marquise shape and a round diamond, pear-shaped diamonds are perfect for dangle earrings as well as solitaire rings.
Heart
An unmistakable symbol of love, heart-shaped loose diamonds are popular choices for solitaire pendants and rings and look best above .50 carats.
Marquise
The modified brilliant-cut boasts one of the largest crown surfaces of any diamond, maximising the perceived size and creating a slender appeal.
Emerald
The uniqueness of emerald cut diamonds causes a dramatic effect due to the long, narrow facets creating a chic and elegant look, the most sought-after step-cut.
Diamond Grading
CLARITY
Clarity is a measure of the purity and rarity of the stone. The clarity of a diamond relates to the number of surface defects that exist called blemishes, combined with the internal characteristics called inclusions. Inclusions are liquids, solids or gases trapped in the mineral as it is formed.
CARAT
Carat is a measurement unit of mass and refers to the size of the diamond, this is sometimes referred to as the metric carat.
Carat size is divisible by 100 points of two milligrams each. A paragon is a flawless stone of at least 100 carats.
COLOUR
In a perfect world a diamond would have no colour,
but in reality chemical impurities or structural defects exist and affect colour. Diamonds occur in a variety of colours including white, blue, steel gray, orange, pink green and red.
CUT
The cut of a diamond should not be confused with the shape.
The cut refers to the proportioning, polish and symmetry. At Grand Diamonds we only purchase loose certified diamonds from South Africa’s leading diamond cutters.
