7 C's of Diamonds

About Diamonds

- The 7C's of Diamonds

Carat:One carat is equal to 1/5 of a gram in weightFor diamonds under a carat, each carat is divided into 100 points. For example 0.75ct. = 75 points, 1/2 ct. = 50 points.

Clarity:Diamonds form under tremendous heat and pressure giving them distinguishable internal and external characteristics. These qualities help gemologists separate natural diamonds from synthetics and simulants, and serve to identify individual stones. Inclusions and blemishes are the two types of clarity characteristics. Inclusions are characteristics within a diamond while blemishes are on the surface of the diamond.

Color:Most diamonds used in jewelry are near colorless with tints of yellow or brown. Color grades are determined by comparing each diamond to a master set. Each letter grade represents a range of color and is a measure of how noticeable the color is.

Cut:A polished diamond's beauty is effected by its relationship with light and how light reflects off of the surface, how much enters the diamond, and how the light returns to your eye. The result is a compilation of three qualities. Brightness is the white light reflecting from the surface and interior of a diamond. Fire is the colored flashes that can be seen in a diamond. Scintillation describes the sparkle of light you see, and the overall pattern of bright and dark areas when you look at a diamond face-up. A diamond's proportions affect its performance. This affects its beauty and overall appeal. Diamonds with ideal proportions optimize the interaction with light, and have good brilliance, fire, and scintillation.

Conflict Free - make sure that your jewelry sells conflict free stones. In additon to selling only conflict free stones, Elizabeta Jewelry donates a portion of the sale to http://www.conflictneutral.com/ to help counter the negative effects of the diamond industry.

Cost:GULP! Don't fret... Elizabeta Jewelry offers very competitive prices on high quality cut and graded diamonds. All of our diamonds are graded by independent gem labs such as the GIA, and are guaranteed to be as described.

Customer Service:We at Elizabeta Jewelry make our customers top priority! No order is too big or too small. We welcome any and all of your questions. Call us to chat or shoot us an email. We would love to hear from you!

If diamonds aren't for you, check out colored gemstones or diamond alternatives, such as diamond hybrids and moissanite.

Our new look!

Elizabeta Jewelry has just updated the look and feel of our website. We are trying to promote social and environmental responsibility and hope that our site inspires that. In addition to the famous designers we offer, we have recently added Alberto Parada. He uses recycled gold, fairtrade gems, and conflict free diamonds. Another addition are LifeLinks (TM). They are links, available in sterling silver, 14kt yellow gold, or 14kt white gold that you can add to a bracelet, necklace, earrings, or ring. And you get to pick the links that speak to your personal philosophy or lifestyle. They make a terrific gift for someone wanting to give a gift with meaning...

We would love to get your opinion on the new look of our site and our new collections. For everyone that comments on the site, we will enter your name into a drawing for a $100 gift certificate. We will draw a name at the end of September.

Thank you for your input!
