The Canadian Ideal Cut Diamond describes a round brilliant diamond that has been cut to exact and mathematically proven proportions. It's symmetry, with 58 precisely placed facets, produces exquisite lustre and beauty. These diamonds when graded for proportion by the A.G.S., reach a perfect grade of "0" or IDEAL. Quite simply, this is the highest standard for cutting in the world today, cut by Canadians, in Canada, to perfection. When a diamond is cut to Ideal proportions, all of the light entering from any direction is totally reflected through the top and is dispersed into a display of sparkling flashes and a rainbow of colors.

Many people confuse cut with the shape of a diamond. The shape you select is a matter of individual taste, and today the skill and imagination of the craftsman only limit your choice. Most round, brilliant-cut or fancy-shaped diamonds possess 58 carefully angled flat surfaces, called facets, whose placement will affect the fire, brilliance and ultimate beauty of your diamond.
