ALAMONT Diamonds: Everything You Need to Know to Choose the Perfect Jewel

Diamonds have always captured attention and imagination, not only for their incomparable beauty, but also for their symbolism and profound meaning. At ALAMONT, we understand that a diamond is more than just a precious stone; it's a reflection of emotions, stories, and memories destined to last.

What is a diamond?

A diamond is a precious stone formed deep within the Earth, under extreme conditions of temperature and pressure over millions of years. This natural wonder is composed of pure carbon, crystallized in a structure that gives it exceptional strength and brilliance. In fact, diamonds are known as the hardest natural substance on the planet, scoring 10 on the Mohs hardness scale.

Diamonds and their 4 C's

When choosing a diamond, it is important to understand the four essential characteristics, known as the "4 Cs": cut, clarity, color, and carat weight.

• Cut : Refers to how the diamond has been cut and polished. A good cut maximizes light reflection, providing captivating brilliance and sparkle.
• Clarity : Measures the purity of a diamond. The fewer internal and external imperfections it has, the higher its value.
• Color : Diamonds are graded on a scale ranging from colorless to light yellow. The most valuable are those that are completely transparent and have no perceptible tones.
• Carats : Indicates the weight of the diamond. The larger the size and weight, the higher the value.

At ALAMONT, we carefully select each diamond, ensuring it meets the highest standards of quality and beauty.

The ethical origin of our diamonds is fundamental to ALAMONT. We work only with certified suppliers who strictly comply with the Kimberley Process, ensuring that our diamonds come from responsible and conflict-free sources.

History and Symbolism of Diamonds

Throughout history, diamonds have symbolized strength, purity, and eternity.
