	Diamond - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Diamonds have also rarely been found in deposits left behind by glaciers (notably in Wisconsin and Indiana); however, in contrast to alluvial deposits, glacial deposits are not known to be of significant concentration and are therefore not viable commercial sources of diamond.
		Diamonds do not show all of their beauty as rough stones; instead, they must be cut and polished to exhibit the characteristic fire and brilliance that diamond gemstones are known for.
		Diamonds which are not cut to the specifications of Tolkowsky's round brilliant shape (or subsequent variations) are known as "fancy cuts." Popular fancy cuts include the baguette (from the French, resembling a loaf of bread), marquise, princess (square outline), heart, briolette (a form of the rose cut), and pear cuts.

		Diamonds do not show their beauty as rough stones; instead, they must be cut and polished to release the characteristic fire and brilliance that diamond gemstones are known for.
		Cuts are influenced heavily by fashion; baguettes—which accentuate a diamond's luster and downplay its fire—were all the rage during the Art Deco period, whereas the princess cut—which accentuates a diamond's fire rather than its luster—is currently gaining popularity.
		A major diamond cutting industry has grown up in the state of Gujarat, India where 90% of the world's diamonds (as measured by number of diamonds) are cut by a workforce of 800,000 http://www.vibrantgujarat.com/sp-gems.html.

	Diamond - Cut (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
		Because of a diamond's extreme hardness, for years the way a diamond could be shaped was by rubbing two diamonds together or by rubbing the diamond against a file charged with diamond powder.
		A diamond's proportion and finish are the only human-control factors of the 4 Cs, yet they directly affect the weight, color and clarity of a finished stone, and are the single biggest factor in a diamond's brilliance, fire, and scintillation— the factors which make diamonds uniquely beautiful.
		The reason an ideal cut diamond usually weighs less than one-half of its rough weight is because the diamond-- in effect-- is taken from the heart of the stone.

	Diamond Cut
		The cut of a diamond — its roundness, its depth and width, the uniformity of the facets — all determine a diamond's brilliance.
		Avoid diamonds with symmetry grades of fair (F) or poor (P), as the alignment of their facets may misdirect light so severely that it affects the brilliance of the diamond.
		These diamonds reflect the most brilliance because they are cut to the most exacting proportions, and have the highest polish and symmetry grades for round diamonds, and have either excellent or very good for princess-cut, emerald-cut, and Asscher-cut diamonds.
