Diamonds are cut and polished geometrically in order to reflect and refract light. A diamond's ability to 'twinkle' is one of the four characteristics one examines when buying a diamond: its name is cut. Others are clarity, colour and carat weight. A tiny change in light angle, or position of the diamond, will alter the light path through the gem (caused by the gem's internal matrix and its external angles).
