Miller and Co., we've been helping customers like you discover the beauty and brilliance of diamonds for over 55 years.
Understanding the 4Cs
The foundation of any diamond purchase is the 4Cs: cut, color, clarity, and carat. These factors determine a diamond's quality and value, and understanding them is crucial.
Cut refers to the diamond's proportions and how well it reflects light, which is what gives a diamond its sparkle. Color ranges from D (colorless) to Z (light yellow), with the most valuable diamonds being those with the least visible color. Clarity measures the presence of internal flaws or blemishes, with flawless diamonds being the rarest and most expensive. Carat is the weight of the diamond, with larger stones typically costing more.
Choosing the Right Setting
Once you've selected the diamond that meets your criteria, it's time to choose the perfect setting. From classic solitaire to intricate halo designs, the setting can dramatically impact the overall look and feel of the piece. Our knowledgeable staff can guide you through the various options and help you find a setting that complements your diamond and your personal style.
