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.
