  • Here's a video explaining why your diamond is appearing darker than it should be. We've been getting questions often relating to buyers that have purchased their diamond engagement ring online or from other jewellers, asking us why their diamond appears darker, even though it is a high Color or Clarity grade.
    There can be several reasons for this, where some can be easily resolved, while others unfortunately is due to the diamond itself. In this video, we share the 4 most common reasons of why this is happening to your diamond.

    This is the only video that explained/showcased florescence in sunlight - the argument is it doesn't matter unless you go to the club with UV ray lighting, but of course the sun has UV rays too! lol

    So it is light leakages caused by poor cuts that causes a diamond to look dark? The other factors are inclusions including cloud inclusions. Thank you for such great insights. Best video ever on diamonds I have been able to find in months! 🙏

    • @jeankeats3200
      @jeankeats3200 Před 2 lety

      Absolutely! Also, I found out a long time ago about florescence in a diamond. GIA does grade on this. Mine has no florescence in it. It's REALLY sparkly. I got D color but got good cut. Yes, cut is VERY important as light can leak out of the bottom of the diamond. It's ALL about light that goes in, bounces on all the facets and comes out to the eye! I can't believe people buy stones on line. I would not do that.

  • @kjenkins8648
    @kjenkins8648 Před 3 lety +6

    Does light passing through the stone vs. light reflecting off the cuts give better visual effect? Or does the reflection give better visual effect?

    • @louiep3237
      @louiep3237 Před 3 lety +6

      Reflection. Any light passed thru the diamond isn’t reflected back to your eye.

    • @KimberlyBishh
      @KimberlyBishh Před 2 lety +2

      And the skin that's seen thru the facet makes it darker as opposed to reflecting the light back. Just like mirrors reflect light brighter than a dark window.

      Emerald cuts are often cheaper and can look bigger per carat :) but because of how they're cut you will want to make sure there are no noticeable inclusions, however. Did she try some on though? I thought I wanted emerald cut but I felt meh when I put it on. I went with princess in the end (square). Good luck!

    why is the GIA report number wiped out in both diamonds? I want to see the table dimensions and other metrics for each. All you need is the measurements of the report and reference against ideal measurements. was it purposely chosen a very deep cut stone for comparison? I'm sure triple excellent ideal cut would have great light performance either way. Unless you put something side by and look closely for comparison it'll still be a gilttery rock. if you want to max bling, moissanite would do that but not everyone likes the showy shine.

      EXACTLY! Diamonds have little to no resale value (a fact you learn when you try to sell it), have less sparkle than Moissonite anyway, and have tons of issues connected with variations in cuts, colour, and cloud inclusions! A dreadful deal for the common man (unless you are a celebrity in which case they bring you fame and envy, not everyone’s cup of tea). Missonite is far better and a far better choice because they are flawless in every way (if you are careful to choose Forever One grade) and also eco-friendly (no mining and destruction of the environment!).

      @@Indusxstan Lol diamonds are diamonds. Moissanites are Moissanites. Moissanites are diamond alternative. Not all diamonds are made that way. People try to justify that moiss have better fire and clearer but really, it's because it's a lot cheaper. Ethically speaking, it's out of the question because there are diamonds like 'lab' diamonds that are ethically grown.

    I am shocked at what this man is claiming!What a misleading video for placing nothing but FEAR into consumers who doesn't understand diamonds or fine jewelry so you can sell your " no milky, super ideal cuts". NOT all diamonds with fluorescence appear milky, and showing a milky faint does not represent all stones! I am seriously blown away at this super misleading video you made.
