A Diamond's Depth
Why is a diamond’s depth so important, and how is it determined? Diamond depth is the height of a diamond in millimeters measured from its table (top) to its culet (bottom). The depth percentage measures the ratio of a diamonds depth to its total width. Depth can significantly impact the quality of a diamond’s cut and the amount of light it reflects.

Polish & Symmetry
Diamond polish and symmetry are critical components to cut quality. For maximum brilliance, every facet of a diamond should be polished after the cutting process. A symmetrical diamond will have well-balanced and properly aligned facets. If the facets are not symmetrical or not optimally shaped, they’ll display less sparkle.
Table & Table Percentage
A diamond’s table is the largest facet of the stone, comprising the flat surface on the top. The table percentage is the ratio of the width of the diamond’s top facet in relation to the width of the entire stone. The right ratio results in a large amount of fire and brilliance.
