Well, if Diamond A were cut to ideal dimensions that particular diamond would weigh .75ct. So what\u2019s the big deal about that? Could it be that you received a great value for that diamond and get to tell everyone that it is 1.00ct? Well, take a look at the below representations of what happens when light enters and exits both diamonds.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/wafiza.com\/diamondfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/4r5tt.png” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content” title_text=”4r5tt” sticky_enabled=”0″ border_width_all=”1px” border_color_all=”rgba(224,153,0,0.22)”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text ul_type=”circle” ul_position=”inside” ul_item_indent=”50px” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Jost||||||||” text_text_color=”#30373e” text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”24px” header_4_font=”|||on|||||” header_4_font_size=”16px” hover_enabled=”0″ custom_css_main_element=”font-weight:400;” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]Because of the steeper angles on Diamond A, light does not have a chance to reflect within the diamond and back out to the eye. BUT, keep in mind that since light is escaping out of the bottom of the diamond, light is also entering from the bottom!!! So why is this important? Well, diamonds are like little magnets for grease. It is going to be impossible to keep your diamond perfectly clean and when Diamond A gets dirty, it doesn\u2019t look as bright or as sparkling as it did when it was absolutely 100% clean and in the showroom. Diamond B however acts like a mirror reflecting almost all of the light coming from above (which is pretty much where all light comes from). So even when Diamond A is dirty and hasn\u2019t been cleaned, it will sparkle like it is on fire. The only benefit is bragging rights, but when the two stones are put head to head, Diamond B will put Diamond A to shame.

    Girdle Thickness<\/h3>\n\nGirdle thickness is one of those double edged swords. Too thin and your diamond has a greater risk of chipping. Diamonds are one of the hardest substances in the world, but if it is wafer thin at one point, it is easy to imagine how a good solid blow could cleave off a precious piece. Too thick and it can be unsightly and add carat weight to the diamond. As the girdle is the widest part of the diamond, a thick girdle can really add weight to the diamond without adding any scintillation or sparkle whatsoever.\n\nSo what should you be looking for?
