Why Cushla Whiting?

The proportions of a diamond's cut determines the light return and the brightness of the diamond. It is the most important of the 4 C’s in determining the beauty of the diamond, yet also the most neglected. Because the GIA does not give a cut grade to any diamond other than a round diamond, there is very little incentive for diamond cutters to cut them to ideal proportions, instead preferring to maximise profit by leaving as much carat weight on the diamond as possible.

For this reason at CUSHLA WHITING all of the diamonds that we buy are given a GRADE ABOVE™ cut grade using ASET (the Angular Spectrum Evaluation Tool) to scientifically examine the light return and optical symmetry of the diamond.
