Cut quality shapes how a 1 carat diamond performs, influencing brightness, fire and scintillation. At Tiffany, cut remains central to diamond selection, ensuring exceptional light performance and a refined visual presence. Proportion and symmetry also affect how the diamond appears, including its spread on the hand, while color and clarity refine the overall look in close-up viewing. Tiffany craftsmanship completes the design, with settings engineered to present the diamond with precision and confidence.
