Terms and Conditions

In choosing a diamond, it is important to understand four factors known as the 4 Cs - cut, colour, clarity and carat. The interplay of these factors determine a diamond's beauty, rarity and value. Diamonds with the combination of the highest 4C gradings are more rare and consequently greater in value. No one C is more important than the other. The factor that is most desirable is purely dependent on individual preference. We recommend a good balance of the 4 Cs within a given budget.

Besides understanding the 4C's we recommend the following when buying a diamond:

1/ Examine your diamonds loose

2/ Examine the colour of your diamonds with a grading tray under proper lighting

3/ Examine your diamonds inclusions with a microscope

4/ Seeing is believing. Examine the actual diamond, not just from a picture or the internet.
    Diamonds with the same specification can face up differently.

5/ Your diamond must be certified by a internationally recognised independent laboratory.
     All Daniella diamonds, 0.50ct and above comes with a certificate from laboratories such as GIA
     HRD or DCLA.

We have put together this guide as a starting point to understanding diamonds. For further details, speak to our jewellers who will provide guidance in finding the right diamond that best suit your needs.
