Modern round brilliant-cut diamonds feature 57 facets. Light passes back to the eye through the table facet. As a result, a well-proportioned diamond reflects most light back internally. The proportions and symmetry of a diamond change the way light passes through a diamond. Light bends as it passes from one medium to another- an effect referred to as refraction.Īs this light travels through the diamond, it strikes another surface within the stone, and reflects white light back to the eye. The passage of light through a diamond slows as it passes through the matrix of carbon crystal. Light refraction and reflection in diamonds In the following video, a round brilliant cut diamond sparkles with fire, brilliance and scintillation in a tension setting of our Unity ring design. But few people understand the difference between each of these terms. Most people refer to fire, brilliance and scintillation. For this reason, great time and effort go into cutting a diamond to release not only beauty but its value at the same time. The cut and proportions of a diamond can influence value by as much as 40 per cent.

At the same time, light reflects from the stone.įor this reason, diamonds provide the ultimate symbol of love.
