The above diamonds have proportions and angles which are required for AGS’ Excellent cut grade or better. The American Gem Society (AGS) has developed a diamond grading system which is based on light performance. This is by far the most effective way of determining the cut quality of a diamond as the system takes into account the very advanced research conducted by both AGS and its sister organization GIA. See The Fascinating Science of Diamond Fire.

The Selection Process

I assess diamonds for a number of factors. For a diamond to be included in my recommendations it must have:

  • the required angles according to potentially qualify for AGS’ ideal/excellent cut grade;
  • good contrast
  • optical precision
  • high quality diamond material;
  • good value;
  • no visible inclusions (eye-clean);

I only include a diamond I am confident the recipient will absolutely love.

Thanks for using my free diamond concierge service.
