Is a diamond real if there is a diamond symbol on the ring?
The only real way to tell if a diamond is real is to let someone look at it that knows what they are looking at. They can tell you if it is a genuine diamond and tell you what quality it is. There are tons of imitations. There are diamond testers that pretty well for about $100.00 also. If the ring is inexpensive and the diamond looks clear not yellow with no visible imperfections, clouds, or black dots; then that sounds too good to be true. I'll attach a little more info about diamond quality as a resource.

How can you tell if the cut is good?
The cut of a diamond refers to the shape and the make. The shape is self-explanatory and the make is the quality that the diamond was made into shape. A good make in a diamond is considered more important than other features like clarity and color of the diamond. Proportion, symmetry and polish all affect how good the make is. Proportion and symmetry are the key factors in determining the flow of light. You want proportions that are not too deep or too shallow. Polish is important too. A well-polished diamond produces a sharp sparkle while a poorly-polished diamond can look fuzzy.
