Ideal Cut Diamond

WHY IDEAL CUT IS IMPORTANT?



The Importance of Cut

A lot people looking to buy a new diamond are so often confused between diamond cut and diamond shape especially when a regular person hear a diamond expert referring to shapes as if they were a type of cut. Diamond cuts matter greatly! It affects the sparkle of a diamond. More often than not, buyers tend to give much weight on the 3 of the 4 C's (Carat, Color and Clarity) and forget the importance of "4th C", the Cut grade.

A diamond's cut grade pertains to how well a diamond is cut or proportioned. It refers to the symmetry or how symmetrical its sections are. Symmetry & proportions play a crucial role in allowing a diamond to have a proper reflection of light which means  that the light entering from any direction to be totally reflected through the top and dispersed into a gorgeous display of color. If the symmetry, proportions and polish are made perfectly, the diamond will show an excellent sparkle and likely be graded as "Ideal Cut Grade".

In the past, little importance was given to the quality of cut of a diamond. Grading was primarily based on color and clarity. But in the beginning of the 20th century, when optical brilliance was studied further, the forms of diamond cuts developed through trial and error. Year 1910 came when the calculations have been applied which consider the physical and optical properties of a diamond  such as dispersion, light refraction and hardness in order to have a maximum brilliance through an accurate proportions and symmetry. Such style of cut has underwent the longest and highest degree of development  as it started long ago as the first century B.C, and only in the 20th century did it arrive in full maturity in the appearance and characteristics of a round brilliant cut diamond.

Ideal Diamond Cut

Ideal cut diamonds appear the most brilliant where the weight of the diamond is proportional. This means that the top and bottom parts of the stone are very near to the same weight. And with this balanced weight the facets can be aligned (cut) to reflect the light perfectly coming in right back up the top part of the diamond giving a sparkling or fiery look. The factors which contribute to the proportions are girdle diameter, table diameter, total depth, crown height, thickness of the girdle, pavilion depth, angle of the crown facets to the plane of the girdle, and angle of the pavilion facets to the plane of the girdle. The more the cutter deviates from the mathematically correct proportions, the more the brilliance is compromised, and the lower is the quality of the cut. But a slight deviation from precise standards does not bring any loss of brilliance to be examined by a specialist.

Finding an ideal cut grade to a very good cut grade diamond is more significant aspect than any other characteristics of the diamond grading process. All diamond certificates should have a cut grade and we should give a high regard on it.

Women Proposing to Men

SHOULD WOMEN PROPOSE TO MEN?

When most couples think of proposals, they imagine a man down on one knee presenting his girlfriend with a glorious engagement ring and her swooning into his arms with an enthusiastic “yes!” Why is it so taboo for a woman to propose marriage to a man? Several relationships and marriages exist because both the wife and husband work, and in some cases, the wife makes the majority of the money. With relationships becoming more equal in every other way, what makes the ideal of proposing to man so terrifying for women?

Why Women Don’t Propose

There are several reasons why most women say that they would never propose to their boyfriend. In fact, a survey of 277 male and female college students depicted that not only do most men and women want the man to propose, but none actually wanted the women to propose. Only a few women said they might consider proposing to their boyfriends. Most of these college students said the reasoning behind their preference was tradition, while others said that it “emasculates” the man.


While many think that proposing marriage is a man’s job and that taking that away from them essentially emasculates them, the ball is really in the women’s court. They are the ones who say yes or no. Yet, if a man feels emasculated by a woman saying she want to spend the rest of her life with him, then how equal would the perspective marriage be?

Why Women Should Propose


Gender roles are exactly that. Just because it is a man’s role to propose marriage to a woman, does not mean that that is the way it should be. Just like in any situation where marriage is on the table, both the man and woman should be on the same page about where their relationship id heading. If you, as a woman, believe that you and your man are ready to take the next step, you have just as much right to propose to him as he does to you.

Videotaping Marriage Proposals

Should You Videotape Your Wedding Proposal?


Wedding proposals are a turning point in any couple’s lives. When bending down on one knee, the world will come to a standstill and two people will be sealing their fate together for eternity. Oftentimes, this moment is one that is held within a person’s memory but never actually recorded.

The question many new couples have is should a wedding proposal be recorded? This is a very easy answer for most, but there are benefits to having a video and going without one.

Supporting Reasons Behind Videotaping Your Proposal

After purchasing your diamond engagement ring, wedding proposals will only happen once for most couples. This means that recording the event is a once-in-a-lifetime chance. Those that chose to video their proposal will be able to:
  •  Look back on their proposal during their 10th, 20th and subsequent            anniversaries.
  •   Play the proposal video during their wedding ceremony.

Video recording is becoming so commonplace that many people are recording their proposals without giving it a second thought. The main benefit of recording your big proposal is that you will have captured an unforgettable moment in time and will be able to cherish the proposal for the rest of your life.





Some Factors to Consider

Before diving into the proposal, there are some factors that really need to be considered.
  •  Unless done correctly, a videographer can completely ruin the surprise  proposal.
  •  Videographer costs can be too expensive and may cut into a wedding budget  depending on how soon a wedding will take place.
  •  There is always a chance that the person may say no and this horrifying  moment would be captured on video.

The only issue is that the proposal needs to be spontaneous and occur naturally. When the event is caught on video, it can make a proposal less natural and often put a damper on the occasion. The key is behind the person recording the proposal and how everything is setup.

The main decision lies on your shoulders when it comes to videoing your proposal. If you are positive that your partner will say yes and you can record the event discreetly without giving away the proposal, there is truly no reason to not record the entire event.


There, by no means, should be a pause where a person has to set up their own camcorder or phone to start recording. There should be a separate videographer that will be able to capture the event from the moment the couple stands up to the moment that she says YES!
