The cutting and proportioning of a diamond is the only
characteristic of the four diamond characteristic that
man can actually control. Diamonds that are not cut to
Ideal proportions are cut this way for one reason and
one reason only... to retain the maximum weight from
the original rough. If a cutter wants to increase the
carat weight of a diamond he can add weight to the
bottom of the stone by cutting the pavilion deeper.
Unfortunately by changing the angles on the back this
will allow light to "leak" out through the sides of the
diamond. The result is a dark spot in the center.
