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.

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.
