The 4Cs of Diamonds >
​
There are the 4Cs of Diamonds - cut, color, clarity, and carat weight - the most important characteristics to understand when making a diamond purchase.
Color
The second most important of the 4Cs is color, which refers to a diamond's lack of color. The less color, the higher the grade.
Clarity
Often the least important of the 4Cs because the tiny imperfections are often microscopic.
Carat
The term carat actually refers to the diamond's total weight and not its size.
