The diamonds selected by W. Salamoon & Sons are visually stunning. Diamonds above 0.50 ct. come with the assurance of being GIA certified. These certifications are a testament to the rigorous evaluation process each diamond undergoes, focusing on the four crucial factors known as the 4 Cs: Color, Clarity, Cut, and Carat.
Color: The Spectrum of Brilliance
In the world of diamonds, color is a defining characteristic. Ranging from D (colorless) to Z (light color), diamonds are grouped into categories such as colorless, near colorless, faint, very light, and light. The less color a diamond possesses, the higher its grade, resulting in a more visually appealing gem.
Clarity: Unveiling Inner Beauty
Clarity is an essential aspect that evaluates the presence of imperfections or inclusions within a diamond. These natural occurrences during the diamond-forming process are meticulously quantified and specified. Diamonds are categorized into groups such as Flawless (F and IF), Very Very Small Inclusions (VVS1 and VVS2), Very Small Inclusions (VS1 and VS2), Small Inclusions (S1, S2, S3), and Included (I1, I2, I3).
Cut: Crafting Brilliance
The cut of a diamond measures how well-proportioned its dimensions are, impacting its balance and brilliance. At W. Salamoon & Sons, the emphasis on the cut is paramount as it directly influences the visual appeal of the diamond. A well-cut diamond reflects light in a way that maximizes its sparkle and allure.
Carat: Weighing in Elegance
Carat, an objective measurement of a diamond’s weight, is one of the most popular indicators of size. W. Salamoon & Sons recognizes that striking a balance between carat weight and the other three Cs is key to offering a selection that is not only visually stunning but also a true embodiment of elegance.
When investing in a diamond from W. Salamoon & Sons, customers can be assured that the certification provides a non-biased view into the quality of the diamond. Moreover, beyond the 4 Cs, factors like shape, treatment, and proportions against carat weight are carefully considered, ensuring that each diamond tells a unique and enchanting story.
