The origin of its name already means invincible, and no wonder, since diamond is the hardest mineral known. In the world of jewelry, diamonds are considered as the quintessential gemstones.

Their composition is based on pure crystallized carbon and is characterized by withstanding high temperatures and corrosive conditions. They are an excellent thermal conductor and electrical insulator. At the same time, they have great elasticity, which gives them great strength and toughness.

Diamonds are one of the most prized minerals in the world for their physical and optical characteristics. Their crystalline morphology is extremely rigid and is highly unlikely to be contaminated by any other element.

The extreme conditions of their origin make diamonds a natural phenomenon.

The formation of diamonds is due to the extreme conditions that the ore undergoes. With very high pressures and temperatures, as they are formed 140 to 190 kilometers deep and need between 1000 and 3000 years to form. If we can access these precious stones in their natural state, it is thanks to volcanic eruptions that make them come to the surface where they cool and form the rocks known as kimberlite and lamproites, from where these precious minerals are extracted.

It must also be said that they can be created in laboratories emulating natural conditions, with high pressures and temperatures. Today, however, there are techniques that manage to distinguish synthetic diamonds from those of natural origin..

The color, cut, purity and weight of the diamond you are looking for in Suïssa Joiers

The value of a diamond is calculated based on its shape and size, and as we said, based on its color, size, purity and weight.

• Purity:
  There is a table with eleven degrees that determines the purity of the diamond. And given that many inclusions and defects are too small to be seen by an untrained eye, you need to make sure you qualify a gem with these characteristics. At first glance, two diamonds may look the same, but they can be very different and to know the true quality of the treasure, only a professional evaluation can determine its real quality.
• The size:
  Looking at the size, the most common shape is the round, which we call bright, with 58 facets, regardless of size. It is classified according to a table of 5 levels: Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair and Poor, that is, from Excellent to Poor.
  Diamonds also get their name from the way they are cut.

• Weight:
  One of the concepts we most relate to diamond is the carat, and it is directly related to the dimensions of the gem. 1 carat is approximately 6.5 mm in diameter. And although the value of the ore is not directly proportional to its weight, it should be noted that a large diamond is much less common than a smaller one, therefore, being scarcer, will increase its value due to this fact.
• The colour:
  A contradiction tells us the importance of color: the more absence of color the more value the diamond has. Although it may seems strange, colorless diamonds are extremely rare to see. The color of the diamond shows us the degree of impurities it contains and the structural defects in terms of its formation.
  The color gradation is evaluated based on a table stipulated by the Gemological Institute Of America (GIA), which, although there are other nomenclatures, this is the most used and determines the quality based on its range of tones. This table classifies the colors from D to Z, being the D the one that qualifies the diamond like more colorless and the Z the one that classifies the diamond with more presence of color.
