Natural Diamond:

What is a natural diamond?

The natural diamond is one of the most famous and coveted gemstones in the world, renowned for its exceptional brilliance, extreme hardness, and incomparable sparkle. Formed under extreme pressure and temperature conditions deep within the Earth, the diamond is composed of pure crystallized carbon.

What are the physical properties of a natural diamond?

The natural diamond is famous for its hardness, which reaches the top of the Mohs scale with a rating of 10, making it the hardest known substance on Earth. This exceptional hardness makes it extremely resistant to scratches and ensures its long-term durability. In addition to its hardness, the diamond has a great ability to refract light, giving it its unique sparkle and its capacity to shimmer spectacularly. The purity, color, cut, and weight (carat) of the diamond are also key determinants of its value. At Edenly, we guarantee a minimum quality of HSI for your diamonds.

What is the symbol of the diamond?

The natural diamond is often associated with symbols of eternity, purity, and strength. Due to its durability and brilliance, it is considered a symbol of lasting relationships and sincere commitments, making it a popular choice for engagement and wedding rings. Historically, diamonds have also been seen as talismans of protection and power, believed to bring courage, invincibility, and mental clarity to the wearer.

The dazzling beauty and rich symbolism of the natural diamond, combined with its exceptional physical properties, make it the most coveted gemstone in the creation of fine and luxurious jewelry.

Edenly offers certified natural diamonds that meet the highest quality standards. They comply with the Kimberley Process, ensuring that diamonds come from legal sources and are not conflict diamonds.

The color of a diamond is measured using the international color scale, which grades them from D (colorless) to Z (yellow hue). At Edenly, you will only find colorless or nearly colorless diamonds (from D to H) whose potential inclusions are not visible to the naked eye (SI).

Edenly provides a certificate with each of its jewelry pieces indicating the weight and quality of the diamond. For custom creations with a diamond greater than 0.50 carat, a certificate from the IGI (International Gemological Institute) will be automatically provided.

CERTIFICATES


- Edenly provides a certificate of authenticity with each of its jewelry pieces indicating the weight and quality of the diamonds in its creations.
- For jewelry pieces containing a diamond over 0.3 carats, a G.I.A. (Gemological Institute of America) certificate will be automatically provided free of charge. This certificate, issued by one of the most prestigious and globally recognized laboratories, is a guarantee of quality and authenticity. Once examined, the diamond is then delivered in a sealed package with, in some cases, the laser inscription of the certificate number on the girdle. A printed certificate accompanies the diamond, detailing all its specific characteristics. Due to the cost of requesting such certificates (several hundred euros), these are not systematically issued for diamonds under 0.3 carats.
- For certain specific stone cuts (such as marquise cut) or very large stones, an IGI (International Gemological Institute) or HRD certificate may sometimes be provided for double assurance. These are "closed" certificates where the diamond is sealed in a transparent polyester box. However, a written request to the laboratory is necessary.
- Finally, Edenly works only with diamantaires who apply the Kimberley Process, ensuring that diamonds come from legal sources and are therefore not conflict diamonds.

Natural Diamond Cluster:

What is a diamond cluster?

A diamond cluster is a jewelry composition that combines a group of small diamonds arranged to create the appearance of a single large gemstone. Rather than focusing on one large diamond, clusters use multiple small stones set closely together to maximize sparkle and brilliance.

Why choose a diamond cluster?

Diamond clusters are popular for several reasons. Firstly, grouping several small stones can create exceptional sparkle by capturing and reflecting light from multiple angles. Secondly, clusters offer a more affordable alternative compared to purchasing a single large diamond, while still creating a voluminous and impressive appearance.

A diamond cluster combines the splendor of multiple small stones to create dazzling and economically advantageous jewelry. Thanks to their ability to magnify sparkle and brilliance, these subtle arrangements of diamonds continue to attract jewelry enthusiasts seeking beauty and value.
