Diamond Weight:
0.08 ct
Carat weight is the physical weight of the diamond; 1 Carat equals 1/5th of a gram. But that's not what's important, what is important is that the higher the carat weight of your jewelry or diamond the more it will shine, provided that you backed your carat weight with other characteristics that make the diamonds so special. We give unparalleled advice on how to decide what the most practical combination of diamond characteristics are most suitable for you and your jewelry. Listed below are a few combination with specific jewelry objectives, figure out your objective and the method of reaching it should be listed above.
High Quality
After years of being a jewelry consumer you will finally realize that quantity will not beat out quality, and for this you want to go with a minimum of VS1 F color. However, we rarely manufacture jewelry with this grade on a massive scale simply because few customers can appreciate it, pay for it, or even recognize it when they see it.
Diamond Clarity: SI1
SI1 SI2
SI is the most practical way to purchase diamond jewelry that will impress onlookers and satisfy the diamonds true purpose which is to shine. A SI-1 Stone with G color is a grade that can fool even the pickiest diamond buyers who claim they only stand for VS diamonds. This is because in smaller diamond sizes, the difference is too minute to tell with the naked eye especially if you lack years of experience.
Diamond Color: G
G-H
G color is the finest achievable color that can be sought after for being near colorless without breaking the bank. H is a close second but has a noticeable difference to a diamond professional. A grade between G and H is what we call G-H which is a great way of enjoying near colorless diamonds without paying the colorless price.
Cut : Round
Round Cut
Of all the various diamond shapes, the most popular by far is the round diamond. It takes center stage in the classic engagement ring – a round, solitaire diamond set either in yellow gold or platinum. Shapes other than round are called fancy shapes. There are many different round brilliant diamond cuts from the ideal cut diamond such as the 58 facets - to the patented and even 66-facet Leo Diamond cut.
Width: 6 mm
Gemstones: Ruby
Ruby is a variety of corundum that can have different shades of red, and can be pinkish or even purplish. Corundums of other colors are sapphires.
Ruby - and sapphire as well - is a very resistant stone, ranked just after diamond on the Mohs scale.
That's what makes it one of the most appreciated gemstone for jewelry. The intense red that a ruby can have is much sought after too.
The Pigeon blood ruby is the best ruby quality worldwide: these raspberry-red rubies only come from Myanmar (Burma) and they are becoming rarer and rarer.
In Myanmar, the ruby market is lead by women, and they sell rubies only at the sunrise and at the sunset on a bronze platter because it is the best way to valorize the color of the gemstones or to make them appear more vivid.
There are other ruby deposit in Africa - like in Tanzania - or in South Asia - like Vietnam - but the best deposit is definitely Myanmar.
Gemstones Clarity: Very Lightly Included
The clarity of a stone is commonly described as being from "Free of Inclusions" over "Lightly", "Moderately",Heavily" to "Excessively Included".
Here is how we describe a stones clarity:
- Free of inclusions: Even under 10x magnification no inclusions become visible
- Very Lightly Included: Only a pro with a lens might find an inclusion, but maybe not.
- Lightly Included: Inclusions are visible under a 10x magnification but rarely with the unaided eye
- Moderately Included: One might see inclusions with the naked eye, but they should not dominate the stone
- Heavily Included: Inclusions are clearly visible and influence the stone's appearance
- Excessively Included: A stone might not be durable.
Gemstones Color: Red
A chemically pure and structurally perfect diamond is perfectly transparent with no hue, or color. However, in reality almost no gem-sized natural diamonds are absolutely perfect. The color of a diamond may be affected by chemical impurities and/or structural defects in the crystal lattice. Depending on the hue and intensity of a diamond's coloration, a diamond's color can either detract from or enhance its value. For example, most white diamonds are discounted in price when more yellow hue is detectable, while intense pink or blue diamonds (such as the Hope Diamond) can be dramatically more valuable. Out of all colored diamonds, red diamonds are the rarest.
Gemstones Cut: Round
Round Cut
Of all the various diamond shapes, the most popular by far is the round diamond. It takes center stage in the classic engagement ring – a round, solitaire diamond set either in yellow gold or platinum. Shapes other than round are called fancy shapes.

Setting: Prong & Bezel
Prong
Prong is the most practical way of holding a gemstone or anything else for that matter. When you hold a pen in your hand you are using a kind of prong setting. Its sturdy and safe however a quality prong setting is one using really small and light prongs as not to take away from the gemstones. This minimal prong setting is achieved by master jewelry's that know that nothing ruins the luster of a gemstone more then large metal rods holding it. So when considering the quality of a prong setting you should seldom see the prongs at all or where one prong holds more then one stone.
Metal:
18k White Gold
18k
18K also know as 750 because it is 75% pure gold. 18K is relatively the purest form of gold that we can use to manufacture quality diamond jewelry. An advantage of 18k is that it catches rhodium better then lower grades of gold. This gives 18K gold a much nicer white luster at first; but unfortunately when rhodium wears off 18K white gold is left looking yellowish and dull. However with yellow gold, 18k will retain the most high quality gold luster possible to practically use with diamond jewelry forever. 18k is heavy, precious, soft and should mostly be used in jewelry generally under 20 grams.
Weight: 1.70 Grams (The final weight of the item may vary slightly)
When dealing with precious metals the total value is determined by the weight of the metal, usually per gram and the labor involved in working with it (such as polishing, casting etc.). The heavier the weight of the metal in your jewelry the more value it has and the more you will have to pay for it. Below is a list of weights that we recommend when purchasing a certain type of jewelry.
Mens Rings - 12-25 Grams
Mens Earrings- 1-5 Grams
Mens Braceletes 30-150 Grams
Mens Chains -20-150 Grams
Mens Pendants/Crosses - 20-60 Grams
Note: This weight mostly pretrial to gold jewelry.
Thickness 2mm
