Our Story

 

Like snowflakes, no two diamonds are the same. This gives each of them an individual history - a snapshot of perfect conditions and timing, somewhere in the world, so long ago.

The story continues when the rough is collected, analysed  and carefully broken down. An enthusiast spent hours upon hours minutely drilling, carving and precisely cutting the clump of rock to show off one of the most hypnotisingly spectacular objects in the world.

 

It's with these 'cutters' where D'Selection diamonds are sourced. And we want to share these incredible pieces with you. Presented beautifully in Platinum and 18k gold for an everlasting treasure.

 

Education

 


Cut

D'Selection suggests that perhaps the most important of the three Cs is Cut, so it is important to understand how this quality affects the properties and value of a diamond. 

An excellent cut gives a diamond its brilliance, which is that brightness that seems to come from the very heart of a diamond. The angles and finish of any diamond are what determine its ability to handle light, which leads to brilliance.     

Excellent (EX)   Very Good (VG)   Good (G)  Fair & Poor

 

Clarity

When we mention a diamond's clarity we are referring to the presence of identifying characteristics within the stone. Diamonds are graded for clarity under 10x loupe magnification.  

IF - Internally Flawless: no internal flaws, but some surface flaws. Very rare.
VVS - Very Very Slightly Included (two grades). Minute inclusions very difficult to detect.
VS - Very Slightly Included (two grades). Minute inclusions seen only with difficulty under 10x magnification.
SI - Slightly Included (two grades). Minute inclusions more easily detected under 10x magnification.


Colour

A colourless diamond allows more light to pass through it than a colored diamond, therefore the colorless diamonds emit more sparkle and fire. The formation process of a diamond ensures that only a few, rare diamonds are truly colorless. Thus the whiter a diamond color, the greater its value.
