Diamonds

Every shape. Every size. Honest light.

Loose diamonds — natural and laboratory-grown — hand-selected for cut and brilliance. Every stone is examined under our lab equipment before it leaves the showroom, with a full 4Cs report on request.

Diamond Shapes

Ten classic silhouettes

The shape is what you see first. Each silhouette has its own personality — and its own price-per-carat. Round brilliants are the most popular and the most expensive per carat; fancy shapes (oval, pear, emerald) can give you a visibly larger stone for the same budget.

  • Round Brilliant

    The classic. 58 facets of maximum sparkle.

  • Princess

    Square face, sharp corners, modern fire.

  • Oval

    Elongates the finger; brilliant cut.

  • Emerald

    Step-cut clarity, hall-of-mirrors look.

  • Cushion

    Pillow shape, vintage romance.

  • Pear

    Teardrop — one round end, one point.

  • Marquise

    Long, pointed — looks larger than its carat.

  • Asscher

    Octagonal step cut, art-deco icon.

  • Radiant

    Cropped corners + brilliant facets.

  • Heart

    A romantic statement — the ultimate gift.

The 4 Cs · in plain English

What actually decides a diamond's value

  • C1

    Cut

    How well the diamond is faceted. Cut = sparkle. A well-cut stone is brighter than a bigger, poorly-cut one.

  • C2

    Colour

    Graded D (icy white) to Z (warm yellow). For white diamonds, closer to D is more prized.

  • C3

    Clarity

    How clean it is inside. FL/IF are flawless; VVS, VS and SI are common and look beautiful to the eye.

  • C4

    Carat

    The weight, not the size. 1 carat = 0.2 grams. Two diamonds of the same carat can look different sizes depending on cut.

Natural Diamonds

Earth-mined, billions of years old. Each carries a unique geological fingerprint. We disclose origin, treatment and any enhancement honestly on every certificate.

Lab-Grown Diamonds

Chemically identical to natural — grown in weeks instead of millennia. More affordable per carat and equally certified. Every lab-grown stone is clearly labelled.

Every stone, certified.

Whether you buy from us or bring your own, each diamond can be authenticated and issued a Diamond House Gem Lab certificate with a QR-verifiable record.
