About
Jones and Son Signature Diamonds
The sparkle of a diamond is often called
"fire" because colorful bursts of light that are refracted from the many facets.
In a well-cut diamond, the light entering the stone bounces from one facet to
another and emerges through the top of the stone.
To maximize brilliance, both a skilled
master diamond cutter and meticulously planned and perfectly proportioned cuts
produce the highest cut diamonds of exceptional fire and value. As much as 63%
of the uncut diamond can be lost during this process.
At Jones
and Son we think it is worth it to lose rough diamond material to
maximize the beauty of the diamond. With 63% of a rough diamond being cut away,
there is no margin for error; the slightest miscalculation may make the
difference between Diamonds On Jones and Son Signature Ideal
Round Brilliant diamond and a Very Good Cut diamond.
About The Symmetry
A
diamond's symmetry refers to the alignment of the diamond's facets, which have
large impact on a diamond's brilliance. Each facet is like a mirror or small
reflective surface. When the facets are symmetrically aligned, all of the light
that enters the diamond is reflected back to your eyes. Look carefully at the
illustrations in this section. The diamond on the left has poor symmetry,
because the facets are not aligning properly. This will cause the light to be
mis-directed causing the diamond to look less brilliant. The diamond on the
right is in the Jones and Son Ideal Signature Collection and its facts are
symmetrically aligned, allowing the maximum amount of light entering into the
diamond to be reflected back to your eyes, for dazzling
results.
About Perfect Proportions
Proportions effect how light travels after entering a diamond. Diamonds
that are cut too shallow or too deep allow light to pass through the pavilion
before it can be reflected through the table of the diamond, having a
significant effect on the brilliance's. When a diamond is cut with perfect
symmetry and perfect proportions, a diamond will gather and reflect light, for
maximum brilliance.
