It is designed to produce maximum fire, brilliance, and scintillation (sparkle). It has evolved over several hundred years and is the most researched and scientifically analyzed cut in the industry. Simple, timeless, and beautiful.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>The reason the round brilliant cut diamond is so popular is\u2026<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Most likely because the symmetrical shape lends itself to a facet structure which delivers the highest volume of light return and sparkle factor, at least when it is cut to the right proportions and the diamond cutter maintains an exceptional degree of precision when shaping and indexing the facets\u2026 or it might just be because the round brilliant cut diamond happens to be the most popular diamond shape of all time, and thus the diamond cutters just keep cranking them out and retail jewelry stores keep buying them, and shoving them in your face.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If you don\u2019t think there is any validity to that suggestion, just try to find an exceptional Asscher cut diamond, the majority of diamond cutters who were producing them, changed their wheels over to produce cushion cut diamonds when they became more popular and hardly an Asscher is to be found.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Or perhaps the modern round brilliant cut diamond is so popular because it is simply a timeless classic, which became the symbol of the diamond engagement ring when it was popularized via the national advertising campaigns sponsored by De Beers back in the post-war era of the 1940\u2019s when the majority of print advertisements run by De Beers featured round brilliant cut diamonds;, like the image of a star struck couple staring up into a sky filled with diamond studded stars, as presented by the image featured above which is provided courtesy of De Beers. It was during this era that Frances Gerety coined the phrase \u201ca diamond is forever\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2911 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/venus-tears.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Diamond-The-Sun.jpg\" alt=\"diamond-the-sun\" width=\"400\" height=\"283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venus-tears.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Diamond-The-Sun.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/venus-tears.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Diamond-The-Sun-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/venus-tears.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Diamond-The-Sun-768x543.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 85vw, 400px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Fun fact: Round Brilliants typically look larger when viewed from the top compared to Princesses, Emeralds, Asschers, Radiants, and Cushions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.venus-tears.jp\/sg\/reserve\"><u>RESERVATION<\/u><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Click to make an appointment with us and you will be entitled to a $40 voucher which can be used to offset your total bill!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Although it is best to pre-book appointments to avoid disappoinment, we do accept walk-in guests and we will try our best to attend to you.<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Hope to see you soon!
