Stones from VS1 to S2 are best value because they are lower in price without too many inclusions.) Diamond color (Diamonds that are colorless or near colorless are most prized.)

If a diamond is poorly cut, light is lost through sides and bottom of diamond and there will be no radiance) Diamonds are more commonly found in certain shapes; baguette, emerald, heart, marquise, oval, pear, princess, radiant, round and trillion. The most popular diamond shape has been round brilliant because people believed it to be an "ideal cut" that displayed most brilliance and sparkle in a diamond. The design also allows it to hide flaws and imperfections. However, new technology has made other shapes just as brilliant, such as princess cut and trilliant cut. Today, there is no such thing as an "ideal cut" when it comes to diamond jewelry.
