Round Brilliant Cut Engagement Rings

The classic Round Cut diamond ring, or Brilliant Cut diamond ring as it is regularly known, is still the main fashion of diamond rings within the international diamond market. It has the most brilliance because of its perfect spherical form and the 58 facets that characterise the contemporary brilliant cut diamond design.

Although there are 58 aspects, the proportions and angles can be all different due to quality of the cut. Often the stone is cut to get a satisfactory yield from the rough material. DDS Diamond Design Studios uses the highest grade brilliant cut diamonds to fabricate high quality diamond earrings in Adelaide, as well as other stunning Jewellery, as that is what our clients opt for.

Brilliant cut diamonds have three categories referring to the quality of the general cut. They are classified according to Cut, Polish and Symmetry and everything is graded between Excellent and Poor.

The Cut grade describes the overall accuracy of the cut and its closeness to the exact ideal cut angles and ratios possible. The Polish grade describes the smoothness of the diamond’s polish. Polish is typically very good to excellent in recent times because of the advanced equipment used in cutting-edge cutting factories.

Symmetry refers to the angles, proportions and side alignments which determine the manner light travels through the stone and how it exits the stone.

The pinnacle of cut grades, often called the ideal cut, is also referred to as ‘Hearts and Arrows’. This is where all the diamond’s facet angles are the same or very close to ideal, so you can see in a specific scope a lovely display of hearts and arrow shapes in the diamond.
