Brilliant’s unprocessed form the diamond, which is found in rock kimberlite originally alone. On the other hand, diamond which is found in different rocks, mostly formed by the eroison of kimberlits or transfiguration of the sediments. Brilliants can be found largely at, South Africa (Kimberley), East Africa, Endonesia and India.

Diamond is the processed form of the brilliant. There are 57 facets over the diamond. Facet is an angled surface that reflects the light. Diamond is composed of the three parts. These are the crown, belt and cone.

The name of place over the belt is crown. There are 33 facets over the crown. Because of there are too many facets over the crown, it looks whiter than the other parts.

Belt part can be natural, polished or with facets. Belt thickness effects the diamonds brightness. Thicker belted diamond looks more matt, in otherway thinner belted diamond will be indurable for transfixing. Belt part makes the diamond sturdy. If there werent belt over the diamond, stone wouldn’t be able to produce.

The part under the belt, called cone. There are 24 facets on the cone. Cone, reflects the incoming light to the outside. A cone that cutted with right angles, reflects the incoming light, out of the crown again. So, with this way the diamond will gain an optimum brightness. Sometimes cone’s end can be facetted. This facet prevents damage that may occur to the most sensitive part of diamond, the cone. Even though, diamond, the hardest mineral in the world, are indurable to impacts from certain directions and can be broken easily.

How should be the ideal diamond?

diamond’s value can be determine with 4C (Cut - Carat - Color - Clarity) feautres. 4C features, categorizes the diamond and known as these 4 features; cut, color, clarity and carat sizes.

You should consider these features when buying a diamond. Diamond brightness and beauty are related to these 4 features. As long as the diamond not damaged, it wont lose any value of its 4C features.

1 - CUT

Diamond cut is related to stone’s symmetry and sizes. Cutting, will give diamond to its brightness and defines ability to breaking the light. However, even a stone with perfect color and clarity, turns into a matte stone, with bad cutting. So this means, cutting is the most important feature of the diamond. Because, with a better cut diamond will reflects the light flawlessly.

If a diamond cuts with right angles, incoming light from one surface, reflects out from the other surface, and consequently light spreads out from the crown section. If the cutting is not deep enough, the part of a light, slip through from the bottom section called the cone. And this causes the diamond don't shine enough.

2 - CARAT

Carat is related to diamond weight. Carat is one-fifth of a gram (1ct = 0,200 gr). Even thought the weightness is an improtant factor but it is not enough by itself for determining the value of a diamond. Even between the same weighted two diamonds, will have differences in their values, due to their different color, cut or clarity.

3 - COLOR

Diamond, due to reactions during the formation of its, can be found in different colors. From dark yellow to vivid and to bright white, there are many color variations. How close their colors to colorless, their values will increase. The most rare and white ones are D, E, F, G.

The vast majority of natural diamonds are between of the H-A colors. Yellow tones continues from bright to dark on the M and sub-colors. Also there are diamond with very rare colors. These are very rare stone with prominent colors such as, pink, blue, yellow and red. /p>

4 - CLARITY

Clarity characteristics of each diamond, fully separates from the others. There aren't any diamonds with the same inclusions. Like as GIA, HRD diamond grading, there are five factors using for the determining the diamonds clarity degree.

1. Size

2. Inclusion (Blemishes in diamonds or track) Numbers

3. Location

4. Natural Feature

5. Relief

On the other hand, there are cultured pearls been cultivated for a long time. Cultured pearls formation time is between 3 and 7 years. The formation of these pearls starts with, entering the sand or another foreign substance into the oyster shell.
