Diamond cutting

Diamond cutting is the art and science of shaping diamonds to enhance their brilliance and beauty. It involves precise techniques to create facets—the flat surfaces on the diamond—that reflect light. The quality of a diamond cut affects how well it sparkles and its overall appearance. Expert cutters analyze the rough diamond and decide the best strategy for maximizing its size and clarity while minimizing waste. The most common styles include round, princess, and emerald cuts, each offering different visual effects. Ultimately, skilled diamond cutting transforms raw stones into stunning gemstones sought after in jewelry.
