What is a Diamond Cut Pattern.

Diamond cut or diamond cutting is a pattern that is cut into any metal, it is so called because a small angled cut diamond is mounted into a tool which is then attached to a machine that spins at very high speeds, when the diamond touches the metal it cuts through it like a hot knife thorough butter leaving a shiny crisp clean cut on to the metal, when cut at different angles and or different directions, as is the case with these Gold Ball Drop Earrings it leaves a very sparkly effect reflecting light in every direction.

Not to be confused with the cutting of a diamond which is also referred to as  a diamonds cut or diamond cutting the cut of a diamond which would refer to  actually cutting a diamond from rough to a finished facetted stone.

A diamond cut is a style or design guide used when shaping a diamond for polishing such as the brilliant cut. Cut does not refer to shape (pear, oval), but the symmetry, proportioning and polish of a diamond. The cut of a diamond greatly affects a diamond’s brilliance; this means if it is cut poorly, it will be less luminous.
