The jewellery world is exceptionally magical and the most shining star of this world is Diamond. Even the smallest piece of this stone dazzles amazingly. Though they all look almost similar, however, they are very different from each other. They are not even created equally. Based on various parameters, they have been classified into various categories by gemologists. The best diamonds while buying jewellery are the ones that offer great cut, colour, clarity and colour. These characteristics are known as the 4Cs of diamonds. The best diamond jewellery is manufactured by Kundan Lal & Sons.

Chemical Composition:-

Diamonds are carbon compounds made up of pure carbon but often are found with few traces of nitrogen as well as boron. These mixtures are a part of the natural formation of diamonds. However, in some jewellery designs, they have also been added artificially. If we look at these trace elements scientifically, then these mixtures and traces are just considered as optical defects or lattice defects. The presence or absence of these lattices has a significant impact on the gemstones as well. This is from where the classification of diamond originates further.

Classification of Diamonds:-

There are two ways of classifying diamonds, namely the consumer way and the other is the technical way. Let's first understand the consumer way. As per the consumer way, the diamond can be classified as Natural Diamond, Treated Diamond, Man- Made diamond and Natural Coloured Diamond.

Natural Diamond:- As we all know that diamonds are naturally occurring white colourless substances found in the earth crust.

Treated Diamond:- These are the more developed and more enhanced versions of the normal diamonds. Thanks to the technology used in the jewellery industry, their attributes can be significantly modified by using various treatments. Some of the most common treatments used are colour enhancement and filling. These treatments are mainly performed for those diamonds that cannot be sold otherwise. This also causes a reduction in the pricing.

Man-made diamonds:- These kinds of diamonds are also termed lab-developed diamonds. These kinds of diamonds have become very trendy these days. Currently, they are very cheap as compared to man-made diamonds and will be cheaper in the coming years. 

Natural Coloured Diamond:-

This is the rarest form of a diamond. They are available in various colours.

Technical Classification of Diamonds:-

As a customer you need, to know which the best diamond for your purchase is. As mentioned above the presence of traces in diamonds can significantly change the overall pricing. As per the technical classification, the diamonds can be classified as Type 1a, Type 2a, Type 1b, and Type 2b.

Type 1a:-

This particular category of diamond emits a yellowish tint. This is because, in the centre of the diamond lattice, nitrogen is present.

Type 2a:-

This is the rarest collection of diamonds which is hard to find but at the same time is highly preferred by collectors and investors. This category of diamonds come with negligible or no impurities at all.

Type 1b:-

Diamonds under this category are also rare. They are found in yellow, brown and orange colours as they absorb blue wavelengths of visible light.

Type 2b:-

Diamonds classified under this category exist with no nitrogen atoms within them. These types of diamonds are also very rare and valuable. These types of diamonds are the conductor of electricity.
