THE 4 C’s – The industry uses the 4 C’s to determine a diamond’s beauty and value.
CUT
Diamonds that are cut either too deep or shallow can lose light through the sides/bottom, will be less brilliant and, ultimately, of less value. Well cut diamonds reflect light like a mirror from one facet to another and reflect this light through the top of the stone – This results in a brilliant and fiery radiance!
Frequently, some diamond cutters will compromise on the cut of the diamond in an attempt to optimize a diamond’s weight (carat). This can result is a larger diamond with a duller appearance. I guarantee that I only offer the most brilliant looking diamonds. But if you’re concerned with having a larger diamond and only have a limited budget, there are ways to design the ring to visually give a larger appearance on her finger. I’ll show you!
CLARITY
COLOR
Because a colorless diamond, like a clear window, allows more light to pass through it than a colored diamond, 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’s color, the greater its value. Diamonds graded G through I show virtually no color that is visible to the untrained eye. Vanessa Nicole Jewels only offers diamonds with D – J color. A “J” color is Vanessa’s personal color threshold – she will not put her name on a piece that crosses that line.
CARAT
The price of a diamond does not double for each doubling of the carat. In other words, a 2 carat diamond does not cost twice as much a 1 carat diamond. The cost of a diamond increases exponentially with an increase in weight. This is because larger diamonds are rarer than smaller diamonds and the rarity increases the value of a larger diamond.
We don't believe in inflating our prices – we believe in offering great design, using the highest quality materials, adding value and serving others. Vanessa Nicole goes above and beyond for her clients because in her words, "your experience matters."
