Symmetry

Symmetry is also a quality criterion when evaluating a diamond according to the 4Cs. It is taken into account in the course of the cut. In a perfectly symmetrical diamond, the facets are arranged evenly in relation to each other, the edges are adjoining and the table and the culet are positioned exactly in the centre. If all this is in place, the light refracts perfectly in the diamond, making it shine – and increasing its value.
