Cut refers not only to a diamond's shape, but more importantly to its proportions.
A well-proportioned diamond brings out the maximum beauty.
A diamond cut too deep or too shallow loses light through the side or bottom, resulting in loss of brilliance.
Clarity is the degree to which a diamond is free from inclusions and blemishes, which can hinder the light as it passes through your diamond.
Like people, diamonds have natural "birthmarks" that vary in size, shape, position, quantity and color.
These birthmarks, or inclusions and blemishes, are formed deep in the earth during the diamond's growth.
