What should you spend on a diamond?
When you start to think about buying a
diamond—and the love it will symbolize—you naturally want the best you
can afford and a beautiful stone you will treasure forever.
Diamonds can be found in a range of
price—and you’re certain to find one within the Diamond Quality Pyramid
that suits your taste and what you plan to spend. If you’re about to buy
a Diamond Engagement Ring, you may want to consider spending the
commonly accepted guideline of two months’ salary. But it’s up to you to
settle on a diamond that will truly represent your deepest emotions and
the promise for the future you will share.
Finding a Quality Jeweler
The 5th C: Confidence
A good jeweler is the first step to a
smart diamond purchase. Your jeweler should be knowledgeable about
diamonds and help you feel comfortable making this important purchase.

How to Buy a Diamond Buying Guide
The best explanation is that asking for
the price of a diamond is like asking for the price of a house. A real
estate agent can’t quote you a price for a house without knowing its
size, condition, location, etc. This process is the same one used when
buying a diamond. A diamond’s beauty, rarity, and price depend on the
interplay of all the 4Cs—cut, clarity, carat, and color.
The 4Cs are used throughout the world to
classify the rarity of diamonds. Diamonds with the combination of the
highest 4C ratings are more rare and, consequently, more expensive. No
one C is more important than another in terms of beauty and it is
important to note that each of the 4Cs will not diminish in value over
time.
Once you have established those 4C
characteristics that are most important to you, a jeweler can then begin
to show you various options with quoted prices.

The "Cut" of the diamond refers to the angles and proportions of a diamond.
Based on scientific formulas, a well-cut
diamond will internally reflect light from one mirror-like facet to
another and disperse and reflect it through the top of the stone. This
results in a display of brilliance and fire, thereby placing well-cut
diamonds higher on the Diamond Quality Pyramid than deep or shallow-cut
diamonds. Diamonds that are cut too deep or too shallow lose or leak
light through the side or bottom, resulting in less brilliance and
ultimately, value.
Cut also refers to shape—round, square,
pear, or heart for example. Since a round diamond is symmetrical and
capable of reflecting nearly all the light that enters, it is the most
brilliant of all diamond shapes and follows specific proportional
guidelines. Ask a jeweler to find out more about these guidelines.
Non-round shapes, also known as “fancy shapes,” will have their own guidelines to be considered well-cut
