Since every diamond is a unique stone, every diamond is priced according to its unique characteristics: cut, colour, carat weight and clarity.

You pay less for more flawed, more yellow and poorly-cut diamonds.

There's really no way to rank diamond cut by price.

However, some fancy diamonds are priced by auctioneers by carat weight: per carat given the higher-than-one-carat weight of the fancy stone. In this scheme, bidders usually pay the most for natural blue diamonds, regardless of the cut.

What shape was the first diamond made into?

Raw diamond stones come in all shapes, but once the stray materials are chipped away, the basic shape of the purest, most transparent parts of the stone can generally be described as pyramids, sometimes two pyramids joined at the base. Early admirers of diamonds capitalized on these natural shapes. Diamond jewelry that has survived the ages reveal this natural shape, with points of the pyramids mounted outwardly. This orientation positions the stone's natural facets so that light can be reflected and refracted back to the eye of the observer.


How much sides does a diamond have?

In it's natural state, diamonds have many different shapes, although a perfectly grown diamond crystal would have the shape of an octahedron, which is a bit like two egyptian pyramids base-to-base. A cut diamond has as many sides as the gem cutter gives it. From a top view, most diamonds are cut to be a circle, and the most common cutting plan for a diamond is cut with 57 or 58 flat sides, or 'Facets'. But is does depend on what the gem cutter is trying to achieve.
