Plenty of people ask this question, before, during, and even after a
diamond ring purchase. Plenty of factors affect the answer, one of them being the visible perfection of the
stone.
AGS ASET Scope
ASET technology lets you find out how well, or rather how efficiently, the
stone can handle
light. There is something called “Angular spectrum”, which is the range of ray angle which can set off the brightness of the stone’s
facets. You need to know how to read this information properly and use it as a base for your purchase considerations.
Ideal Scope
Normal lighting fails to bring out the best in most
stones, which is why it is wise to inspect
light return properties under an Ideal Scope.
Hearts and Arrows
If you find a distinct
hearts and
arrows pattern, it means the
stone is able to show off a profusion of virtual
facets, which is good for the
sparkle. This also indicates that the
stone has been cut to exacting standards, placing it well above the average brilliant
cut.
