Because diamonds are difficult to process, before the diamond cutting technology is mature and perfect, the quality of diamonds is determined according to the perfection of the crystal, the brightness of the crystal surface and the weight of the diamond, and the color and clarity do not affect the price.
Before the 16th century, India was the only producer of diamonds in the world.
In 1724, with the discovery of Brazilian diamonds, Brazil gradually replaced India as the main producer of diamonds in the world. The diamond resources produced in Brazil have been the main source of diamonds in the world for more than 100 years. As the supply of diamonds continues to increase, people's perceptions of diamond quality are quietly undergoing a major shift, with cut quality gradually replacing crystal form.
After the discovery of diamonds in South Africa in 1867, a large number of diamond resources were mined, and the output of diamonds increased day by day. Along with the extensive use of diamonds and the development of diamond cutting and grinding technology, people pay more and more attention to the quality of diamond processing. At the same time, the color and clarity of diamonds have also begun to receive more attention from people, and have gradually become important factors in diamond quality evaluation.
In the mid-19th century, the names of diamond mines such as Golcondo, Bagagem, Canavievas, Diamatinas and Bahias were used to describe the color of diamonds. Among them, Golcondo is an important diamond mine origin in ancient India, and the rest are the names of diamond mines in Brazil. Golcondo represents the best color diamonds, followed by Bagagem Canavieras, Diamantinas and Bahias in that order.
With the continuous development of the diamond industry, the evaluation of diamond quality has become more stringent, and the terminology for evaluating diamond grades has also changed, forming a color grading term called "old term", that is, a term describing the color grade of diamonds. It became the name of the diamond mine in South Africa, and was divided into Jager, River, Top Wesselton, Wesselton, Crystal and Cape according to the quality of the color. At the same time, the concept of diamond clarity and cut has also been developed.

Z-Axis System: The Key to Stable Production of MPCVD Diamonds
Microwave Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition is the mainstream method for producing high-quality diamonds in the industry. When the equipment is running, it first pumps the reaction chamber into a vacuum state to strictly ensure the chamber is fully sealed and airtight. Then, the microwave device releases energy, and special mixed reaction gases are fed into the chamber. Under the action of energy, a stable plasma area is formed. These highly active plasmas provide stable heat and reaction conditi

CVD Diamond Clarity: How to Avoid Inclusions That Affect Jewelry Value
After selecting a loose diamond, the setting not only determines the diamond’s security but also directly affects its perceived size. With diamonds of the same weight, choosing the right setting design can effortlessly create the surprise of “small carats making a big impact,” saving on your budget while enhancing the diamond’s quality. Among these, pavé and prong settings are the two most classic and effective ways to make a diamond appear larger. Paired with specialized designs that maximize t
