Our Russian cut diamonds, mined from the diamond veins close to the Arctic Circle, possess an unparalleled clearness and the carat weight is often sacrificed for a beautiful, correctly proportioned stone, displaying brilliance, fire and scintillation to its best advantage.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”THE 4C’S” tab_id=”1453974749288-bdb0c17c-3f77e7c9-240b”][vc_column_text]Carat:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The weight of a diamond is measured in carats. The name comes from a carob bean which was used to weigh diamonds in the past.
\nOne carat is equal to 0.20gms.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cut:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The cut is of critical importance as this determines a diamond\u2019s symmetry and balance to achieve optimum brilliance and sparkle.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Colour:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The colour is rated by the GIA on a scale from D to Z in alphabetical order, where D indicates exceptional white and Z is tinted colour.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Clarity:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The clarity is also rated by the GIA on a scale from IF (Internally Flawless) through VVSI,VVS2, VSI,VS2 where there are very small inclusions invisible to the naked eye, right through to SI1,SI2 and I1,I2,I3 where there are inclusions visible to the naked eye.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_accordion][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_tta_accordion style=”outline” active_section=”1″][vc_tta_section title=”PLATINUM” tab_id=”1443159649602-7d884c3b-ca87e7c9-240b”][vc_column_text]Platinum is the strongest of jewellery metals, has a cool white sheen which accentuates the sparkle and brilliance of a diamond. A scratch may leave a mark, but it will not readily chip or splinter. It will develop a patina of wear, which can always be returned to a high shine with professional polishing. High quality Platinum is usually 95% pure, alloyed with 5% palladium, iridium, ruthenium or other alloys. Hallmarks are 950 Plat or Plat.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”PALLADIUM” tab_id=”1443159650294-c6be12c5-dfd8e7c9-240b”][vc_column_text]Palladium is a naturally white metal, hypoallergenic, will not tarnish and is lighter in weight than Platinum. Along with Platinum, Palladium is one of the rarest metals in the world and is a member of the Platinum Group Metals. Both metals have a remarkable ability to withstand corrosion and oxidation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Palladium does not require alloy metals for protection, is extremely durable, and remains white in colour.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”GOLD” tab_id=”1443159650962-f34c46a8-7238e7c9-240b”][vc_column_text]Gold has unique qualities and an extraordinary heritage, is resistant to rust, tarnish and corrosion. Gold is the most malleable of all the metals, and so is alloyed with a mixture of other metals for strength and durability, such as silver, copper, nickel and zinc.<\/p>\n

Gold\u2019s purity is denoted in Karatage, with:<\/p>\n
