Undoubtedly if you’ve done any diamond shopping, you’ve encountered the term “fire” when it comes to the visuals of a sparkling diamond. But what is it exactly? And what’s the difference between fire and brilliance?

Well simply put, “fire” is the colored sparkle seen when a gemstone is exposed to light. (Diamond fire may also be called “dispersion.”)

Brilliance, on the other hand, is the colorless light that is emitted from the gemstone.

The cut is critical when it comes to both brilliance and fire. If  there are “ideal proportions”, the gemstone will bend and reflect light so the fire and brilliance are maximized and spectacular to behold.

Check out the video below for a great example of fire and brilliance.

Let’s start with an emphatic NO. Hearts are an ancient symbol of love that have been used in the form of jewelry and other art forms for a long, long time. We’ve made countless pieces of heart-shaped jewelry and we can assure you, the happy, romantic wearers don’t mind “going there.”

With that said, heart jewelry doesn’t suit all tastes. How do you know if you or your partner is the heart wearing type?

You’re a romantic at heart.

You cry at sad movies.

You like the color pink.

You love the act of cuddling.

You believe that love will always prevail.

You wear your heart on your sleeve.

Wearing heart jewelry means you’re not afraid to show your emotions and your basic love of love. You embrace all that is romance and don’t mind basking in the beauty of it.

Giving hearts to a loved one means you’re proud of your feelings for that lucky recipient. You are giving a wearable reminder that the wearer is loved.

The final verdict? Go there! Be a heart-wearing fool!

This is a great video showing the new Charles & Colvard hearts and arrows cut vs their standard cut in both color options, D/E/F color and G/H/I color, both in the new F1 crystal. The hearts and arrows is cut more to diamond proportions so it has a taller crown and a smaller table. Stone #1 is the new hearts and arrows cut F1 GHI color. Stone #2 is the standard cut F1 DEF color. Both cuts are available in either color. The GHI color face up very white while the DEF colors are completely colorless.
