I notice that a lot of people here say that cut is the most important factor in determining which diamond to purchase since, in theory, a better cut diamond will return more light.
Many people are sacraficing size for cut ''quality''.
Nobody has mentioned, though the idea that a bigger diamond will return more light, just because it is bigger. It can accept more light due to it''s size and therefore can return more light then a smaller diamond even if the percentage of returned light (reflection/refraction) is greater in the smaller diamond.
At what point is a larger, ''less ideal'' cut diamond better then a smaller ''ideal'' cut diamond?
Does anyone have ideas?
