Most of us are familiar with Diamonds. Mainly they cost an arm and a leg. I wouldn't buy them as a collectors item to be lock up in a beautiful crafted box. What's the big deal about diamonds anywhere, to us guys, it's the price and to the ladies the bigger the better.
Diamond are the hardest natural mineral known today, it can cut other minerals with no issues. It has a hardness of 10 and can only be cut by other diamonds. That's all the technicals I like to share about the diamonds.
The 4 C's is what I want to talk about here. What is the 4 C's?? What's the big deal? Well, the 4 C's are Cut, Clarity, Colour, and Carat. These are the standards for looking at a diamond. Cut refers to the shape of the diamond, such as round, oval, princess. Clarity are measured in I, SI or VVS; these grading defines how brilliant a diamonds shine. Colour, hmm..generally diamonds are colorless which is probably the best one; they do have colour distortion to some level so assumed. Carats..how many do you like?
