Diamond Education

At Nick Diamond & Jewelry, we believe every diamond tells a story. Choosing the right diamond is a special experience, and understanding the 4Cs of Diamonds—Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat Weight—will help you make the perfect choice.

1.Cut ✨

  • What it means: Cut is how well a diamond’s facets interact with light.

  • Why it matters: The cut determines brilliance, sparkle, and fire.

  • Grades: Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor.

Tip: A well-cut diamond often looks larger and more dazzling than a poorly cut one of the same size.

2. Color 🌈

  • What it means: The absence of color in a diamond.

  • Grading scale: D (colorless, rarest) → Z (light yellow/brown).

  • Preference: Near-colorless (D–J) diamonds balance beauty and value.

3. Clarity 🔍

  • What it means: Natural inclusions or blemishes inside a diamond.

  • Grading scale: Flawless (FL), Internally Flawless (IF), VVS, VS, SI, I.

  • Tip: Most inclusions are microscopic and don’t affect beauty to the naked eye.

4. Carat Weight ⚖️

  • What it means: A diamond’s size and weight.

  • 1 carat = 0.2 grams.

  • Larger diamonds are rarer, but cut quality can make a smaller stone shine brighter.

Beyond the 4Cs

  • Shape: Round, Oval, Princess, Cushion, Emerald, Pear, Marquise, Asscher, Radiant, Heart.

  • Certification: All diamonds from Nick Diamond & Jewelry are certified by trusted gemological laboratories for authenticity and quality.

  • Setting: The right design enhances the diamond’s brilliance and showcases your style.
