Fair cut diamonds offer less brilliance than their more well-ranked counterparts as light can easily exit through the bottom and sides of the diamond. These diamonds still shine at a less premium price, making them an excellent option for anyone with budget in mind.


When considering a fair cut diamond, it is imperative to also consider the other 4 Cs: color, clarity, and carat. Since having a fair grade in cut is less than ideal, it is extremely important to find a diamond that retains an excellent level of clarity (little to no inclusions), is within a color scale that you like (generally D-H), and is a carat weight that fits within your preferences.

Fair Cut diamonds are available in a wide variety of shapes including round, oval, pear, marquise, cushion, radiant, princess, emerald, asscher, elongated cushion, and heart shapes.
Fair Cut loose diamonds are offered across a broad range of carat weights from smaller fractions of a carat up to several carats, with many common weights like 0.50 ct, 1.00 ct, and larger sizes included in the collection.
