After hearing this, I want to say that it is 22, please stop saying that broken diamonds are worthless, otherwise it will really show that you don't know jewelry! For a broken diamond, we must first understand what it is.
are all broken diamonds under 1 carat?
"carat-carat" is a term used to describe the weight of diamonds, and another term used to describe the weight of diamonds is "Cents- cent".
1 carat = .2g; 1 carat =1 points; .1 carat is also called 1 points;
a carat diamond is equivalent to the weight of a paper clip.
Yuqi Zhang said that "diamonds under 1 carat are all broken diamonds, which are worthless". However, do you really have an idea about the size of this so-called worthless "1 carat"? Dear me, I found a comparison of the sizes of different carats of diamonds for you.
For the jewelry industry, diamonds under 1 carat (.1 carat to .99 carat) cannot be called broken diamonds. Strictly speaking, diamonds less than 1 carat are called big diamonds and small diamonds. The small drill is divided into sub-stone and Li stone.
(1 carat =.2 gram, 1 carat =1 minutes, 1 minute =1 centimetres)
Grade relation of size less than 1 carat:
Big diamond: weight ≥.3 carat (3 minutes) < 1 carat (1 minutes)
Small diamond: weight < .3 carat (3 minutes)
. Grade relationship of the size of the stone:
divided stone: weight ≥.1 carats (1 minute) < .3 carats (3 minutes)
divided stone: weight < .1 carats (1 minute)
A broken diamond is not a broken diamond, nor is it a leftover of a diamond. It is also complete by itself, just like a whole diamond.
However, due to its small weight, broken diamonds can still be tested for authenticity, although they generally do not have a detailed report of the diamond organization. Most of the cutting methods used in the market are the same as the cutting of 57/58 large diamonds identified by GIA.
Broken diamonds are graded like whole diamonds, and the value of broken diamonds is mainly determined by color and clarity.
color: D-F, G-H, I-J, etc.
cleanliness: SI, VS, VVS, etc.
Although the division is not as detailed as the whole diamond, there are still high and low grades. The higher the grade of color and clarity of a good broken diamond, the more exquisite the jewelry made.
the better the quality of the broken diamond, not only can it make the main stone look bright, but also it is more vibrant, layered and colorful.
a good quality broken diamond is still a "refined stone", and the main stone can distinguish the color and quality more intuitively with its foil. In jewelry design, you can often see some broken diamonds around the main stone, which can enlarge the overall visual effect of jewelry and make it brighter!

Are broken diamonds really worthless?
When Yuqi Zhang said that broken diamonds are worthless, I think what she meant was that broken diamonds have poor value preservation. If it is said from this perspective, it is true that things are rare. Although there are a large number of broken diamonds in the market, it also has its value. It is just that the value preservation is definitely a little worse than that of large carats of diamonds. ?
What I want to say is that it's not the broken diamonds that are worthless, but the big carat diamonds are too valuable! ! !
I think someone might ask at this time:
I went to the jewelry store and said that the broken diamonds less than 1 carat were worthless.
The counter sister didn't refute me. What you said was wrong.
so that's why the cabinet sister doesn't refute your point of view. She doesn't refute ≠ the point of view is correct! !
Although the preservation value of broken diamonds is not as high as that of large carats of diamonds, the value of diamond jewelry can't be just based on preservation. Good jewelry or good diamond jewelry doesn't stipulate that the number of carats must be greater than 1.
without good cutting, good design and good craftsmanship, it's just a stone that has gone through thousands of years and has no wearing significance. Jewelry is to highlight personal temperament, not an exhibition hall to display collections.
Next, let's put a few pictures of stars with the same diamond ring smaller than 1 carat, so that everyone can appreciate this series of "Plume Low-key Love Show" selected by Gao Yuanyuan, the goddess of
. The inner ring is embedded with extremely secret diamonds, which shows the luxurious and low-key taste and symbolizes that true love need not be flashy in the world, but only be engraved in the heart for a long time, which is extremely simple and durable.
Let's take a look at Yang Mi's wedding ring. She chose the simple and generous BVLGARI Bulgari Marryme series for her wedding. The style is bold, unique and highly architectural, and the details are integrated into the modern sensibility. Just like its name, it expresses feelings directly and strongly, and is meticulous and elegant.
The wedding ring chosen by black people and Fan Fan comes from Cartier's LOVE ring. Fan Fan's one is a love single diamond ring finger with 18K rose gold and a .2-carat round diamond, which is exquisite and simple in workmanship and symbolizes the declaration of love.
Well, the above star diamond rings are all less than one carat. Aren't they "valuable"? According to Yuqi Zhang, this diamond ring can only be regarded as "sculpted"?
just kidding! In fact, we can only say that Yuqi Zhang's views are only about how to buy bare diamonds, not how to buy jewelry.
In fact, for most ordinary people, it is still not recommended to buy diamonds with the mentality of preserving and appreciating the value. First, diamonds that can reach the bottom line of preserving the value are expensive. Second, people don't buy diamonds for diamond collectors or diamond wholesalers. Is it difficult to change hands frequently after getting married? Diamond rings change every two days?
instead of obsessing so much, it is better to choose a style that is within your tolerance, most suitable for you or has special significance.
well, having said so much, do you have a new understanding of "broken diamonds"? Do you also think that Yuqi Zhang's statement is too one-sided and incorrect?
However, I think she has a very good saying:
"Buying diamonds is not something that will be changed frequently like buying bags, shoes or clothes, so we must choose to buy good quality things, because these things may accompany you all your life. I think it is better to have more than less.
Sometimes many girls expect boys to give them diamonds, but I think it's good to have them, but it's worthwhile to buy a precious diamond through your own struggle if no one gives them. "
So it's not the most important thing whether it's valuable or not
If you have the money to buy a big one, you can't afford a small one.
Just follow your heart and do what you can ~
Buying your own diamonds and loading your own stories is the most important thing
Well, that's all for this issue.
