the four cs
Timeless beauty begins with the Four Cs—cut, color, clarity, and carat weight—each playing a crucial role in a diamond’s brilliance, rarity, and overall presence. Mastering these fundamentals ensures a diamond not only dazzles but endures with elegance. From the perfect cut to the ideal clarity, each element is thoughtfully considered to meet the highest standards of craftsmanship and quality.
CUT
Cut determines how a diamond handles light. A precise cut brings brilliance and fire, while a poor cut can leave it dull. It's graded from Excellent to Poor, reflecting craftsmanship and proportion.
COLOR
Diamonds range from colorless to warm tones. The less color, the rarer and more valuable the stone. Grades run from D (colorless) to Z (noticeable tint).
CARAT
Carat denotes a diamond’s weight, not just its size. While larger stones are more rare, carat should be considered alongside cut, color, and clarity for a balanced, exceptional stone that feels complete in every dimension.
CLARITY
Clarity evaluates natural markings within the diamond. From Flawless to Included, the scale reveals how visible these internal features are. Fewer inclusions mean greater transparency, rarity, and visual perfection.
diamond shapes
There are ten classic diamond shapes, each offering a unique balance of brilliance, proportion, and style. Whether timeless and round or sleek and modern, the shape you choose should reflect personal taste and the story you want to tell.
diamond certification
gia certification
At Briati, every diamond is accompanied by a certificate from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), the world’s most respected authority in diamond grading. This ensures each stone’s authenticity, quality, and integrity. A GIA certificate outlines the diamond’s unique characteristics, including the 4Cs. It offers confidence, transparency, and peace of mind—essential when investing in a diamond of lasting value.
