We combine the art of jewelry with our extensive experience in diamonds. We offer dazzling and durable pieces, capable of encapsulating lifelong memories.
The perfection of a diamond is a reminder that, even under the highest pressure, beauty can emerge in captivating ways.
One of the things that differentiate diamonds from other gems is the possibility of determining their quality according to certain standards and nomenclatures, which allows us to speak a common, easily understandable “language.” These characteristics are known as the 4Cs.
The 4Cs are a grading system used to evaluate the quality of diamonds. This is what is known as the 4Cs: Cut (size or shape), Carat (weight or carat), Color and Clarity (purity).
This is the International Diamond Grading System adopted by all jewelry professionals around the world, helping you find the perfect jewel.
The gems and diamonds in our jewelry are selected by our certified gemologist. Diamonds over 0.30ct are certified by the GIA Laboratory (Gemological Institute of America), an independent, non-profit organization, considered the highest authority on diamond authenticity and quality.
Our commitment to quality means that all our diamonds also have the Kimberley certificate of origin, a process established by the UN that guarantees that diamonds come from areas free of war conflict.
Size
Cut
The beauty of a diamond lies in its complex relationship with light, resulting in three attributes to value: brilliance (the combination of white light that reflects from the surface and within the diamond), fire (the “flames” of color that the diamond emits) and glare (the light given off when the diamond, light, or observer moves).
The proportions and cut of a polished diamond affect its behavior in light, an aspect that GIA rates from Excellent to Poor.
Weight in Carat
Carat
Each carat is equivalent to 200 milligrams of weight. In the case of diamonds less than one carat, each carat is divided into 100 points to be able to equally assess their weight. At WESSELTON we work with a wide variety of diamonds of different carats.
Color
Color
The color grades of a diamond are determined by comparing each diamond to a predetermined standard.
The GIA color scale ranges from D (no color) to Z (light yellow or brown). Each letter represents a color range and its degree of visibility.
Purity
Clarity
The GIA purity scale includes eleven grades of purity based on the internal and external characteristics of the diamond resulting from its formation under conditions of extreme heat and pressure.
These characteristics are unique to each stone and help distinguish real diamonds from synthetic ones.
Certificate
Certificate
The fifth C, forgotten on many occasions, but equally important: the Certificate. It is very important that the four value characteristics above are established by a serious and impartial certification laboratory.
At WESSELTON we work only with the best gems and diamonds selected by our certified gemologist. Diamonds over 0.30ct are certified by the GIA (Gemological Institute of America), thus guaranteeing the best quality standards in an objective and impartial manner.
