Round diamonds are the most popular choice for engagement rings. Diamond Round more efficient manipulation of light and therefore have the capacity to provide higher brightness and splendor. The brilliance of the diamond is determined by light behaves when it enters the top of the diamond. An excellent cut diamond, reflect all the light entering a diamond and provide more shine and splendor possible.
If a diamond is too shallow, some light will go by the bottom of the stone and if the diamond is too deep, light is refracted the side of the stone. It is therefore important to choose a diamond with a percentage of adequate depth to ensure brightness.
Round diamonds are classified as excellent, perfect, very good, fair, and poor.
