JEWELRY EDUCATION

Welcome to the Kesh Gemstone Jewelry Education Center — a place where we help you understand the story behind your sparkle.
Whether you’re new to fine jewelry or shopping for a lifetime gift, this guide is designed to give you clear, honest knowledge so you can choose wisely and cherish confidently.

💎 UNDERSTANDING DIAMONDS: THE 4Cs

All diamonds are graded based on four essential characteristics — known as the 4Cs: Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat Weight. At Kesh Gemstone, we hand-select every stone based on these precise criteria.

1️⃣ Cut – The Heart of Brilliance

The cut of a diamond refers not to its shape, but to how well it reflects light. A well-cut diamond will sparkle with fire and brilliance, even if it’s smaller in size.
We only use diamonds with excellent cut ratings in all shapes: round, oval, pear, emerald, radiant, and more.

2️⃣ Color – From Warm Tones to Icy White

Diamond color is graded on a scale from D (colorless) to Z (light yellow or brown).
We typically offer stones in the G–H range (near-colorless white) and I–J (off-white), depending on budget and request. HPHT enhancement helps achieve these colors naturally.

3️⃣ Clarity – Beauty Beyond Blemishes

Clarity evaluates the presence of internal (inclusions) and external (blemishes) flaws.
At Kesh Gemstone, we work only with VS to VVS clarity diamonds, which appear flawless to the naked eye and maintain maximum brilliance.

4️⃣ Carat – Measuring Weight, Not Size

Carat refers to the diamond’s weight — not its size. A well-cut 1-carat stone may look larger than a poorly cut 1.5-carat. We offer stones from 0.50 carat up to 10+ carats, all carefully matched to our designs.

🧬 HPHT ENHANCEMENT: NATURE PERFECTED

Many of our diamonds undergo HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) treatment — a process that simulates the natural forces inside the earth.

This enhancement:
• Removes brown or yellow undertones
• Improves whiteness without damaging the diamond
• Increases overall beauty while remaining 100% real and earth-mined

HPHT-treated diamonds pass all authenticity tests and are certified as real by IGL&I.
We disclose HPHT treatment on all listings and certificates — full transparency always.

🧾 DIAMOND CERTIFICATION — IGL&I TRUSTED

Every Kesh Gemstone product is delivered with a printed certification from IGL&I (International Gemological Laboratory & Institute).

Your certificate includes:

✔️ Shape and exact dimensions
✔️ Cut, clarity, color, and carat

These certificates provide third-party proof of authenticity and are accepted globally for gifting, resale, insurance, and travel.
