Clarity Enhanced Diamond –What are they?
Contrary to common conception, enhanced diamonds are not created in any laboratory. They are 100% natural diamonds genuine gemstones earth mined. The process of clarity enhancement involves reducing the appearance of natural blemishes or cracks present in almost every diamond. These fissures or feathers diminish the lustrous appearance of the natural diamond. The enhancement process effectively decreases the visibility of the fissure outlines and helps in amplifying the brilliance of the natural diamond. The result is a radiant, clearer, and visually appealing diamond that sparkles effortlessly.
What Does the Enhancement Process Entail?
Prior to understanding the process of enhancement, we must first learn about which diamonds are enhanced diamonds. As discussed earlier, most diamonds frequently contain tiny fissures inside or near the surface that occur either during natural formation of the stone or during the diamond cutting stage. The visibility and location of the fissure determines whether the enhancement treatment is necessary. A diamond having feathers discernible by unaided human eyes is precisely a perfect nominee for the enhancement procedure.
The first step in the method of enhancement includes heating the diamond at the temperature of 600 degrees.Then a silica-like resin, having a similar refractive index like diamond, is infused inside the diamond that seals the internal fissures directly. The entire process gives birth to an enhanced diamond that allows efficient light reflection and refraction and showcases its internal luster in the best light.
