How are lab diamonds cut?

The deciding factor whether a diamond sparkles or not is its cut and clarity grade. Diamond cutting is the process of making a rough stone turn into facet diamonds. In five steps, a lab diamond goes from rough to ready.

Lab Created Diamonds
  • 1. PLAN

    Ascertain the best shape that can be cut based on size, inclusions and rough quality.

  • 2. CLEAVE & SAW

    Where the cutter splits the rough diamond with mechanical saws or cutting lasers.

  • 3. BRUT (or girding)

    Stones are placed on a spinning axle to grind against one another and round off the edges.

  • 4. Polish

    During this step, blocking and brillianteers make the smooth diamond surface we know of.

  • 5. Inspect

    Ensure that all facets are perfect.
