2.51 Carat Brilliant Cut Diamond, TW-G, VVS-1, GIA Certified

This is a natural round brilliant cut diamond of 2.51 carat, colour Top Wesselton G, clarity VVS-1, with a GIA certificate. It comes from Royal Coster Diamonds in Amsterdam, the oldest still operating diamond polishing house in the world, founded in 1840.

The cut. A round brilliant has 57 facets: 33 on the crown and 24 on the pavilion. The proportions of this cut were worked out mathematically in 1919, with one goal: light that enters through the top should be reflected inside the stone and leave through the top again. That is why a well cut brilliant looks bright across its whole surface.

Colour. Top Wesselton G sits at the top of the near colourless range. Face up the stone looks white, in white as well as yellow gold.

Clarity. VVS-1 stands for Very Very Slightly Included. The inclusions are so small that even a trained grader has difficulty finding them under 10x magnification.

Certificate. The diamond was graded by GIA, an independent laboratory. The certificate confirms that the diamond is natural and records its weight, colour, clarity and cut.

Setting. We can set this diamond in a ring, earrings or a pendant in 18K white, yellow or rose gold. Our diamond specialists advise you in our boutique in Amsterdam or online.

Please note. The image shows a rendering of this diamond shape, not a photograph of the stone itself, so colour, clarity and proportions of the actual diamond may differ from what you see here. The specifications and the certificate are leading: they describe this exact stone. Our diamond specialists will gladly send you photos or a video of the diamond, or show it to you in our boutique in Amsterdam.
