Gem Nation
Overview
The
expert jewelers at Gem Nation, the online luxury jewel and watch
dealer, know that the prime quality of a luxury diamond is its cut. The
cut of a stone means refers to its proportions, which determine how much
light it reflects. The perfect cut is the one that bounces the most
light back at the viewer; Gem Nation’s jewelers inspect every single
diamond personally before it goes out to the customer to ensure only the
highest quality stones are delivered to its customers. Gem Nation’s
jewelers use an array of mathematical formulas to determine the ideal
height, depth, and breadth of a diamond’s cut, and confirm the results
visually. With regard to shape, round diamonds present not only a simple
beauty, but tend to reflect the most light, as well. Beyond the cut,
customers of Gem Nation regard color as the second most-important
quality in the diamond they seek. Of course, everybody would prefer a
diamond that has no flaws, but as the diamond experts at Gem Nation well
know, flaws and blemished, called inclusions are nearly unavoidable in
the vast majority of diamonds—at least, when examined under a microscope
at high magnification. Gem Nation’s jewelers do their best to furnish
clients with an “eye clean” diamond, the term applied to a stone whose
inclusions are not readily visible to the naked eye. They also
understand that inclusions and irregularities in color most readily
appear to the eye in a diamond cut in the rectangular “emerald” style,
so they try to avoid an emerald cut unless the customer insists upon it.
