Cut
Cut, usually confused with a diamond's shape, actually refers to
the arrangement of the facets. The precision and
finish of each facet determines how much a diamond 'shines'. So whatever
the shape of the diamond, it will sparkle if it is well cut
The
sketch below shows how cut affects the diamond's ability to handle light.

Deep
cut:
Light escapes throught the side |
Shallow
cut:
Light escapes throught the bottom. |
Perfectly
cut:
More light more brilliance on the top. |
A well cut diamond is better able to handle light creating more brilliance and sparkle, and therefore commanding more value. We at Bapalal take great pains to select diamonds only to ideal proportions, ensuring the best for you.
