Why are Hearts and Arrows Diamonds Considered The Most Ideal?

Traditionally, the cutting of diamonds can be termed as a form of liberal arts in the sense that artists push boundaries of their craftsmanship here. The diamond with a hearts and arrows pattern is an ideal example of that. When you view the diamond with an ideal cut from the crown or top, it should show 8 symmetrical arrows pattern. Likewise, if you view you the diamond from the pavilion or bottom, it should show a pattern of 8 symmetrical hearts. This uniqueness and reflective patterns lend itself gorgeously to a hearts and arrows diamond ring.

The hearts and arrows diamond engagement ring is for those who seek beyond an Excellent cut grade. Not all diamonds with that GIA rating will qualify automatically as one with this particular pattern. Owing to the precision of cutting to make the patterns symmetrical, these diamonds are often called “Super Ideals”. It refers to their optical symmetry, enhanced light performance, and the quality of the material.

Moreover, the formation of the pattern is owing to the meticulous care taken while polishing the diamond facets to exact proportions and angles. Therefore, this precision level polishing goes beyond the requirement for it to achieve an excellent symmetry.
