Beyond the "4Cs" - Character of Diamonds

Beyond the "4 Cs": Get More from Your Lab-Grown Diamonds

When it comes to diamond, most people think of the well-known 4Cs (Carat, Cut, Colour, Clarity) – colour, purity, carat and cut. But for those who want to make a truly informed choice, this is just the beginning of the story. Because behind every sparkle lies a world of detail that the 4Cs cannot fully reveal.

Why isn't it enough to just watch 4C?

Imagine buying a piece of art. Do you choose it only by the color range and size? Of course not. It's the same with diamonds - even with a perfect balance of the 4Cs, the stone can look "cold", lacking life, proportions or play of light.

The truth behind the choice: professionals see beyond the numbers

A true professional doesn't rely only on certificates. He seeks balance, knows how a cut affects the client's face, how the light plays on the stone, and what sensations a diamond creates. This cannot be described with numbers alone. It is a skill, aesthetics, and a dose of experience that comes with time.

Every diamond has character

Even two diamonds with the same 4Cs can look completely different. One can be more vibrant, another more subdued. This is due to micro-details – symmetry, light reflection, radiance. And only a good eye and professional selection can distinguish them.

So trust those who choose for you.

At Karat.bg, we don't just pick a lab-grown diamond from a chart. We choose for you one that looks and feels exceptional. Because we know that not every client is looking for the "perfect" stone - but the one that will suit them the most.

Choosing a lab-grown diamond is more than a science – it's an art

When you choose with a professional by your side, you get more than just a piece of jewelry – you get the assurance that every aspect has been thought out. That what shines has a soul. And that behind it lies personal care, not just an automatic choice.
