GIA Excellent vs Brian Gavin Signature Emerald cut diamonds

Shopping for an emerald cut diamond engagement ring can be a confusing and frustrating experience. Everybody is going to try and convince you that their emerald cut diamonds are better, but the obvious question is better than what?

Because before the creation of Brian Gavin Signature Emerald cut diamonds, there doesn't seem to be a collection of emerald cut diamonds that deliver AGS Ideal-0 Light Performance on a consistent basis.

The best you could hope for was an emerald cut diamond with GIA Excellent polish and symmetry. However, the GIA does not provide a cut grade for fancy shape diamonds, and they don't consider the proportions.

The GIA does not provide crown or pavilion measurements on diamond grading reports for fancy shape diamonds, which is like trying to buy a diamond in the dark. Let me ask you something, would you buy an expensive car without knowing the engine size or performance rating?

Of course not, but people buy "GIA Excellent emerald cut diamonds" every day based on a lab report that doesn't provide a complete picture.

At the same time, the majority of people will buy an emerald cut diamond without the insight provided by ASET Scope or Ideal Scope images.

The Brian Gavin Difference Delivers Peace of Mind:

Brian Gavin Signature Emerald cut diamonds come are graded by the American Gem Society Laboratory (AGSL) on their proprietary Light Performance grading platform because it provides a more in-depth analysis of the diamond, including the crown and pavilion measurements.

The Light Performance grading platform of the AGSL uses Angular Spectrum Evaluation Technology (ASET) to determine where the diamond is gathering light from and provides you with a visual representation of how evenly light is reflecting back at you.

We provide additional ASET and Ideal Scope images on the diamond details page, along with the high-resolution 3D video so that you can fully appreciate the splendor that these diamonds have to offer.

We don't expect our clients to take our word regarding the quality of our diamonds; we provide the documentation and images necessary for you to reach that conclusion on your own. In doing so, we hope that we raise the bar by creating a higher expectation of cut quality and light performance from emerald cut diamonds.
