About Diamonds
Diamond Clarity: No two diamonds are alike. A diamond's most distinguishing characteristics are its inclusions, marks that are often invisible to the naked eye. However, under a jeweler's magnifying loupe or microscope they can look like crystals, tiny rivers, or clouds. A diamond's clarity is determined by the presence or absence of inclusions--fewer inclusions mean better clarity--and how visible they are. The greater a diamond's clarity, the greater its brilliance and value. A diamond categorized as internally flawless will have no inclusions, but this is extremely rare.Diamond Color:Though diamonds come in a wide range of colors, colorless diamonds have traditionally been considered the most valuable. Most diamonds are graded on a scale using the letters of the alphabet, from D (colorless), the best grade, through Z (a light yellow). It is difficult for the untrained eye to notice such variations in color unless stones are being compared side by side. Diamond Carat Weight:A diamond's weight is measured in carats, with one carat being equivalent to 100 points. You will often see a diamond referred to as a 3/4-carat stone or a 75-point diamond. Larger stones are often more highly valued, but size should not be the only consideration--high brilliance, which varies according to clarity, cut, and color grade, is highly desirable in a diamond.Diamond Certification:A diamond certificate represents independent verification that the stone purchased has all the qualities of cut, color, clarity, shape, and weight expected. It is a further indication of the condition and value of that diamond as represented on our site. Such certificates are issued by several agencies employing highly trained gdmologists and provide an unbiased and accurate evaluation of the diamond. These gemologists scrutinize each stone to analyze its dimensions, clarity, cut, color, finish, symmetry, and other details. Diamonds purchased from the Amazon.com Collection may be certified by the Gemological Institute of America or the International Gemological Institute. The type of certificate provided will be noted in the product specifications of your jewelry purchase; if you do not see a certificate type noted, one will not be provided.Our Diamond Policy:Amazon.com sources high-quality diamonds from some of the world's largest suppliers. All our diamond suppliers certify that to their best knowledge their diamonds are not conflict diamonds.Diamond Care:Diamonds, as the hardest substance on earth, are resistant to damage. However, diamond jewelry is set in different metals, and care will vary from piece to piece. Diamonds should be cleaned in a solution of one part ammonia to six parts water, using a gentle scrubbing brush to remove any dirt. It is a good idea to have them cleaned once a year by a professional jeweler, at which time the security of the setting can be checked as well. Diamond jewelry should be stored in a soft cloth pouch to ensure that the stone will not scratch other jewelry.

Customer Reviews

I purchased B;W twist earrings at a mall jewelry store and was considering purchasing the matching necklace. I was thrilled to find that I could get it on Amazon for 1/2 the jewelry store price. I was very concerned about how the quality of the Amazon version would compare. The pieces are identical in how they are made, but the jewelry store earrings have much darker black diamonds then the Amazon necklace. They necklace looks black, but when you hold it up to the earring in bright light, by comparison they look a dark, smoky gray. My belief is that they are actually made by the same company and the higher quality versions go to jewelry stores, while Amazon gets the lower quality ones. The difference in the stone color is barely noticeable, but it is there. I will keep the Amazon piece, as I don't think anyone will be examining my jewelry that closely. I am not a jeweler, so the comment on the quality of the diamonds is only my personal opinion.

My son-in-law bought this for my daughter as a Mother's Day gift. It arrived in 1 day! They both wear black diamond wedding bands and her engagement ring is a black diamond with white diamonds on both sides. This necklace will compliment her other jewerly. The diamonds on the necklace are small but elegant in appearance. It's the kind of necklace you could wear with a beautiful evening dress or t-shirt and jeans.
