Light Performance

How to evaluate the beauty of a diamond?

A Diamond's Light Performance grades a diamond's beauty based on four aspects: Brilliance, Sparkle, Fire and Symmetry.

Briliance

Also called Light Return is the amount of white light that is returned to the table of the diamond. When a diamond has outstanding Brilliance qualities, powerful white light is emanated from the diamond, thus making it look brighter than its actual colour grade.

Fire

Also known as Light Dispersion. It is the dispersion of white light into rainbow colours as the light bends through the diamond. The beauty of a diamond with Excellent Fire, is magical and mesmerizing to behold.

Sparkle

Refers to the flashes of white and coloured light that are visible as the diamond moves. A diamond with high Sparkle index will appear more alive with its dazzling display of white light and coloured flashes.

Light Symmetry

Is the measure of the distribution of light throughout the diamond determined by cuts and inclusions. A well-cut diamond features optimal proportions for equal light distribution.

GIA Triple Excellent Cut

Traditionally, GIA Triple Excellent Cut (3EX) is considered the highest cut grade for diamonds, but with diamond cutting technology constantly evolving, at present more than 80% (by statistics) of diamonds that are graded by GIA are all 3EX. The truth is that not all GIA certified 3EX diamonds are beautiful and in fact there is a big difference as compared to a Super Ideal Cut diamond.

Super Ideal Cut

Super Ideal Cut Diamonds are cut to extremely high precision and optimal angles that give superior light performance - resulting in dazzling flashes and vivid rainbow colours.
