But before you rush to the first jeweller, it\u2019s wise to do some homework. Of course, you don\u2019t buy just any diamond without first finding out what to look for and what jeweller you can go to. It\u2019s not for nothing that most people take their time to choose the perfect diamond. In this blog, we will give you some tips and tricks that can help you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-accent-3-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-affe261bd805a975ede4f60972707dc6\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">The jeweler\u2019s choice<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">For a perfect experience, it is ten times better to shop at a reputable jeweller. They are known for their reliability, knowledge, craftsmanship and quality. Because of this, they can personally advise you on the purchase of a piece of jewellery and explain what to look out for. You can be sure that you have found a reputable and reliable jeweller if this one:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"has-small-font-size\">Is a member of the<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-small-font-size\">Diamond Exchange<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-small-font-size\">Has the right certificates: HRD, GIA, IGI and diamond certificates<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-small-font-size\">Offers a lifetime guarantee<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-small-font-size\">Can offer an upgrade service<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-small-font-size\">Has a rich history<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have found a good and reputable jeweller, you will be faced with the following choice. What kind of diamond should I choose and what characteristics should it have? The jeweller can certainly advise you on this, but below you will find a few points that you should consider<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-accent-3-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-3d7151cc20114620edd12c4b88a06bde\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">Cut, colour, carat and clarity<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The value of a diamond is determined by 4 quality factors and is known as the 4 C\u2019s system, after the words Carat, Colour, Clarity and Cut.&nbsp;The larger the diamond and the finer the colour, the higher the value. The greater the clarity, the more beautiful and the better the cut, the more perfect it is.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-accent-3-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-70cf58c349e755a2bd92d3dfbc3f2241\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">The cut<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">When choosing a piece of jewellery, the cut of the diamond is very important. The facets that are applied determine the brilliance of the diamond. There are several shapes you can choose from: brilliant, emerald, princess, marquise, pear, heart, oval, cushion, Asscher and baguette. The chosen cut is a personal choice and also depends on the jewel in which the diamond is set.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20251004022633\/https:\/\/www.costerdiamonds.com\/inside-coster\/cut\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">In the blog&nbsp;<em>Cut<\/em><\/a>&nbsp;by our partner Royal Coster Diamonds you will discover all about the different cuts and what to look for when buying a diamond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"626\" height=\"381\" src=\"https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Stonesetting-diamond-ring-prong-setting.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1328\" srcset=\"https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Stonesetting-diamond-ring-prong-setting.png 626w, https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Stonesetting-diamond-ring-prong-setting-300x183.png 300w, https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Stonesetting-diamond-ring-prong-setting-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 626px) 100vw, 626px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-accent-3-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-b745351e8bc2afba7d0a4cb49bc742df\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">The colour<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The choice of the diamond colour is very personal. What is your loved one\u2019s favourite colour? Which colour fits the personality? Which diamond colour matches the rest of the wardrobe? The more colourless the stone, the higher its value, but only a small part of all diamonds are completely colourless. Most diamonds show a slight discolouration from yellow to brown. There are also brightly coloured diamonds, the so-called \u2018Fancy\u2019 colours. Red is the rarest colour and therefore the most precious.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20251004022633\/https:\/\/www.costerdiamonds.com\/inside-coster\/color\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">In the blog&nbsp;<em>Colour<\/em><\/a>&nbsp;of our partner Royal Coster Diamonds you can read more about the different colours of diamonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"532\" src=\"https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/251893422_4112327348873116_6330889104768928573_n-e1644234450745-1024x532.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1330\" srcset=\"https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/251893422_4112327348873116_6330889104768928573_n-e1644234450745-1024x532.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/251893422_4112327348873116_6330889104768928573_n-e1644234450745-300x156.jpg 300w, https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/251893422_4112327348873116_6330889104768928573_n-e1644234450745-768x399.jpg 768w, https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/251893422_4112327348873116_6330889104768928573_n-e1644234450745-18x9.jpg 18w, https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/251893422_4112327348873116_6330889104768928573_n-e1644234450745.jpg 1071w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-accent-3-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-ac3c6a509d2d8ec3a05bfaf7fdd0e885\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">Carat<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on your budget and taste, you can also choose the size of the diamond. This is expressed in carat. 1 carat equals 0.2 grams. The size of the stone determines the price of a diamond. The larger the diamond, the rarer it is and the higher its price. Diamonds up to half a carat (50 points) are the most commonly found and are relatively \u2018common\u2019. Diamonds of more than 0.5 carat are rarer and diamonds of more than two carats are extremely rare.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20251004022633\/https:\/\/www.costerdiamonds.com\/inside-coster\/carat\/\">In the blog&nbsp;<em>Carat<\/em><\/a>&nbsp;of our partner Royal Coster Diamonds you can read more about the different colours of diamonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-accent-3-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-07376982d0ad4dfd9a1969acc9e78ef9\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">The clarity<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Diamond specialists measure the clarity of a diamond by the number of inclusions or imperfections the stone has during the crystallisation process. A diamond that is free of inclusions is also called loupe pure and is the most expensive. However, 99.9 percent of diamonds are not loupe clean. The more or the larger the inclusion, the lower the value. The different degrees of clarity indicate the visibility of internal and external imperfections.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20251004022633\/https:\/\/www.costerdiamonds.com\/nl\/inside-coster\/clarity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">In the blog&nbsp;<em>Clarity<\/em><\/a>&nbsp;of our partner Royal Coster Diamonds you can read more about the clarity of diamonds and get tips on what to look for when buying a diamond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"468\" src=\"https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Zuiverheid-1024x468.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1331\" srcset=\"https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Zuiverheid-1024x468.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Zuiverheid-300x137.jpg 300w, https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Zuiverheid-768x351.jpg 768w, https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Zuiverheid-18x8.jpg 18w, https:\/\/diamondmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Zuiverheid.jpg 1072w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">We hope that after reading this blog you are well prepared to buy a beautiful piece of jewellery for your loved one.
