Forevermark Diamond Masterclass – All About Diamonds

Hi guys,

I attended the Forevermark Diamond Masterclass the other day. It was so informative, I came to know quite a lot of things about diamonds in general and Forevermark in particular.

Did you know?

  • The Greeks believed diamonds were tears of God
  • Some diamonds are 3000 million years old!
  • Diamonds are found 90-240 miles below the earth
  • Not all diamonds are meant for jewellery, they are also used in industries. For e.g. the airplane window corners have diamond powder.
  • Diamonds are at a pressure equivalent to putting the point of the Eiffel Tower upside down on your hand.
  • Every diamond in the world ever cut and polished would fit in a London double decker bus with room to spare

Diamonds being so rare, it goes through further quality checks and rigorous processes to be qualified as a Forevermark diamond.

First piloted in Hong Kong in 2004, Forevermark was launched as a wholly-owned subsidiary by The De Beers Group of Companies in 2008, leveraging over 125 years of diamond expertise.

Each Forevermark diamond undergoes a journey of rigorous selection. Less than one per cent of the world’s diamonds are worthy of the Forevermark inscription. The unique inscription is an assurance that every Forevermark diamond is beautiful, rare and responsibly sourced. The miniscule inscription found on Forevermark diamonds is only 1/5000th of a human hair. It can only be seen using a special Forevermark viewer available at Authorised Forevermark Jewellers.

Forevermark is distributed in more than 1,700 doors worldwide and continues to grow with the addition of new licensee markets and the expansion across existing core markets.

Selection process

Rough diamonds that have large inclusions are rejected as there must be no significant inclusions that may affect refraction of light. Those with a cloudy, milky or hazy appearance are also rejected as the diamond’s brilliance is diminished. Some other features can only be seen once the diamond has been cut and polished. Those with a muddy appearance, internal graining and fluorescence are rejected as they all impact on the diamond’s beauty.

Quality of the polish 

Forevermark rejects diamonds that have been forced on the polishing wheel against their natural direction. It will burn the diamond, affecting its transparency and ability to reflect light.

Durability

Diamonds that have been cut with a thin girdle, shallow crown, or steep pavilion are rejected as it makes the diamonds vulnerable to abrasions, chipping and breakage. Diamonds with a girdle too thick are rejected as they carry too much weight, affecting its proportions and diminishing its beauty.

Exceptional Rarity

Forevermark are the world’s most carefully selected diamonds. Only truly beautiful diamonds are eligible to be inscribed with the Forevermark unique inscription. Less than 1% of the world’s diamond are worthy of the Forevermark inscription.

Forevermark Diamond Grading Report

Authorised Forevermark Jewellers are able to supply a Forevermark Diamond Grading Report to their customers which provides an accurate blueprint of the qualities – cut, colour, clarity and caratage of each Forevermark diamond.

In the presentation, I learned how diamonds are cut manually with diamond powder and diamond polish and every smallest cut is to be done with precision as the diamonds keep rotating on a wheel. All Forevermark diamonds are transparent without any inclusions and the colours range only from D-L.

In terms of shapes and sizes, all Forevermark diamonds will have a clear table for the inscription and hence a ball, drop and rose shape can never be a Forevermark diamond.

10 carat Diamond

We also saw a 10 carat diamond and how it reflected light! It was the most beautiful diamond I had ever seen!

The display of Forevermark diamond jewellery was mesmerizing. I also tried a pair of earrings and a beautiful cocktail ring.

I am so glad to have attended his masterclass and learnt a lot of new things about diamonds! I hope you learnt some things too, if you guys have any doubts related to diamonds, comment here or mail me and I will try to get it resolved 🙂

I hope you liked the post.
