What is an Ideal Cut Diamond?

The ideal cut diamond can actually mean different things to different people. Of course, when talking to the Average Joe (or Jane) on the street, they already have a pre-conceived notion of the perfect ring, or the ideal cut diamond, in their head. Some people like round diamonds, some like marquise cut diamonds, and so on.

But when you talk to a jeweler, the ideal cut diamond is a very precise mathematical equation, where diamond proportions and angles are cut to optimize the diamond’s superlative optical properties, in particular it’s high refractive index and color dispersion, to create a diamond of unequaled beauty with perfect balance of brilliance and fire. In layman’s terms, the diamond is cut to make it the most beautiful diamond so it retains its intrinsic value.
