From the Minerals site, below:

"The luster of Diamond is excellent. Diamond exhibits great fire and brilliance, which gives it a shiny, freshly polished look. Rough Diamonds exhibit a greasy luster, but proper cutting give them a powerful adamantine luster.

"Only synthetic substances and a few minor gemstones can reach or excel the refractive index of Diamonds."
