 Clarity
Diamonds with few inclusions are very rare -- and thus
more valuable. The clarity of a diamond is graded based
on the size, number, position, and type of inclusions found
in the diamond. Americus Diamond has diamonds of all clarity
grades. Learn how to choose the right clarity grade for
you. 
   Carat
Weight
Carat is a measure of weight, not necessarily size. The
weight of a diamond is measured in metric carats. When
diamonds
are mined, large gems are discovered much less frequently
than small ones, which makes larger diamonds more rare
and
more valuable than smaller diamonds. Learn how to choose
your ideal diamond weight at Americus Diamond.
Certification
When choosing a diamond it sometimes is easier to view
a diamond certificate, which is a grading report from a
laboratory. A grading report documents the quality of the
diamond so you can be confident in your purchase. Learn
more about purchasing a certified diamond at Americus Diamond. |

 Cut
The cut of a diamond is the most important factor that
determines the brilliance or sparkle. If a diamond is colorless
and flawless but is poorly cut, it will look dull compared
to a well-cut stone of lower quality. Americus Diamond carries
a range of beautiful cut diamonds. Learn how to select the
perfect diamond cut with the most brilliance for your budget.
 Color
Diamonds come in many different colors, but the majority
of all diamonds sold in the jewelry industry range from
near colorless to very light yellow or brown. Diamonds that
have an absence of color are extremely rare. Americus Diamond
offers diamonds in all color ranges. Learn how to select
the perfect color range for your diamond.
   Shapes
Diamonds are cut in a variety of shapes. The shape of
a diamond is often confused with its cut. Shape refers
to the form of the diamond: round or marquise. Americus
Diamond offers many different and exciting shapes. Learn
more about shape so you can find your ideal diamond.
