A portion of our "Ideal-Cut" Diamonds for sale.

The ideal cut diamond is designed to reflect a maximum of
light through the crown.

When a diamond is ideally cut, light rays from all sides are bent towards the center of the stone and are reflected back through the top in a blaze of light.

In a diamond that is cut too deep, much of the light is reflected to opposite facets at the wrong angle and is lost through the side. The diamond may appear black in the center.

In a diamond cut too shallow, light "leaks" through the bottom and the eye may see a dull reflection in the diamond.

What is the "Ideal-Cut"?

The ideal cut is a mathematical formula for cutting diamonds to precise angles and proportions to gain the optimum reflection and refraction of light. You may choose to compromise on color, clarity, or carat weight, but to ensure that you have the most brilliant possible diamond, you should never compromise on cut.

Every Lazare Diamond is ideal-cut.
