Diamond Symmetry Guide

Diamond Symmetry Guide

Diamond and lab-grown diamonds' symmetry doesn’t have any single difference. They both have same amounts and styles of symmetry on the surface, but it depends on skillful and clever craftsmanship. After 4cs of diamonds, the light reflections decided the symmetry pattern on the anatomy. 

If diamond symmetry is placed exactly and without any error, then the reflections look better and glorious. While the symmetry doesn’t place perfectly, all ugly looks appear on the anatomy. Thus, diamond symmetry is the most important factor in deciding the shining appearance of the stone.

Let’s have a look at the diamond symmetry definition and grades to understand what the influential fact makes it more important and salient. 

What is diamond symmetry?

Diamond symmetry is the faceting pattern placed on the anatomy that determines the light reflections. In the symmetry for a diamond, all the shining ability is stored and divided into specific directions to look more brilliant and ideal surfaces. Diamond Symmetry makes the appearance of stone more glorious and noticeable from all the angles and corners to precisely make it valuable.

Diamond symmetry doesn’t influence only one anatomies facet, but it decides from all the anatomies placed on the surface. It means a diamond symmetry scaled on the table anatomy, crown anatomy, girdle anatomy, pavilion anatomy, and tick point anatomy curving and exactly placed faceting patterns.

Diamond Symmetry scales on the five grades: Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, and Poor. As mentioned above, Diamond Symmetry decides on the faceting placement and curving styles.

What is Excellent Diamond Symmetry?

Excellent Diamond Symmetry is the 1st numbered grade that carries the best reflections from the anatomies faceting. In Excellent Diamond Symmetry, all the faceting patterns are matched each other from north to west and south to east directions on the anatomy. Moreover, in the Excellent Diamond Symmetry, not a single faceting pattern mismatched each other. 

What is Very Good Diamond Symmetry?

In the Very Good Diamond Symmetry, the 10% table and crown anatomy faceting styles aren’t matched each other. That’s why Very Good Diamond Symmetry is vastly used to make Halo Rings and Unique Rings to increase light reflections from the anatomy. As a result, very Good Diamond Symmetry can give radiate shine in the returns. The Very Good Diamond Symmetry still carries the glorious looks in the returns.

Definition of Good Diamond Symmetry

Good Diamond Symmetry Definition is the fire catcher and scintillation reflector. In the Good Diamond Symmetry, the girdle and pavilion anatomy faceting patterns don’t match each other with a ratio of 20%. Thus, the diamond light reflection might be affected in the Food Diamond Symmetry, and the overall appearance is decreased even in higher 4cs grade of the diamonds

What is the Fair Diamond Symmetry?

In the Fair Diamond Symmetry, table, crown, girdle, and pavilion faceting patterns aren’t matched for having more curved angles than actual. Thus, Fair Diamond Symmetry carries 50-70% mismatched faceting styles and lines on the anatomies, which directly affects the light reflections in the anatomy. A Fair Diamond Symmetry charges less price than the Excellent or maybe Very Good Diamond Symmetry.

What is the Poor Diamond Symmetry?

Poor Diamond Symmetry means 80-90% of the faceting patterns on the anatomy are mismatched and go in different directions, making the appearance ugly and confusing. Poor Diamond Symmetry is usually made for cheap engagement rings and jewelry. Because of having diverse and mismatched faceting patterns on the anatomy. On the Poor Diamond Symmetry, the triangle and heart shape faceting patterns do not appear in the round cut. The faceting styles are different from the diamond shape to shape. 

Conclusion

Diamond Symmetry plays the light reflection decider role; from that, the diamond gets its actual value. If diamond symmetry doesn’t look better or good, it may sell at a +10-20% price than its actual price. While low-grade diamond symmetry, such as Fair or Poor, might be available at less price than its real price for having different mismatched faceting styles. Thus, when you buy a diamond or diamond jewelry, then select Excellent to Very Good Diamond symmetry with the best price.
