The Four C’s

Understanding Quality

When it comes to purchasing a diamond, whether for an engagement ring, a gift, or a personal collection, understanding the quality of the stone is crucial. This is where the Four C’s—Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat Weight—come into play. Developed by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), the Four C’s provide a universal language for assessing the quality of diamonds. Each “C” plays a significant role in determining a diamond’s overall beauty and value. Let’s dive into what each of these factors means and why they matter.

  1. Cut: The Sparkle Factor
  2. Colour: The Purest Hue
  3. Clarity: The Inner Flawlessness
  4. Carat Weight: The Size Statement
