its shape. Shapes are cut from the original rough
diamond, a well-cut diamond is always better able
to reflect light. - The cut of a diamond refers to its proportions.

aspect which is directly influenced by man.

6Carat
- The word carat has evolved from the ancient
practice in India of measuring diamond weights
with the one thing in nature that is both small
and the most consistent in weight - the carob
seed. Thus the name "carat" evolved in the
English language, which is still equivalent to
approximately the weight of one carob bean. - A diamonds weight is represented in carats. One
Diamond carat is divided into 100 points. A 0.25
carat diamond is the same as a 25 points or 1/4
carat diamond. One carat is the equivalent of 0.2
grams. Carat is often confused with size even
though it is actually a measure of weight.
