From the Deep Earth to Flawless Precision
Our legacy begins deep within the earth. We source only the finest, ethically mined natural diamonds, overseeing their transformation from raw potential to exquisite brilliance at our state-of-the-art Bangalore Workshop.
The Bangalore Workshop
Precision Engineering Meets Heritage
Located in the heart of India's tech and craftsmanship hub, our Bangalore workshop is where raw, earth-mined stones meet cutting-edge laser mapping and traditional hand-polishing techniques.
Technical Purity
Every facet is mathematically calculated to maximize light return, ensuring unparalleled fire and brilliance.
Earth-Mined Ethics
We strictly adhere to the Kimberley Process, guaranteeing that our natural diamonds are conflict-free and responsibly sourced.
Understanding the 4Cs
The four characteristics that determine a diamond's quality, value, and personality — and what GV Diamond looks beyond them.
Cut
The Most CriticalCut determines how a diamond interacts with light — its brightness, fire, and scintillation. A perfectly cut stone outperforms a higher-colour, higher-clarity stone with a mediocre cut. We recommend Excellent or Ideal grades only.
Grades: Excellent · Ideal · Very Good · Good · Fair · Poor
Colour
D is ColourlessThe GIA colour scale runs from D (colourless) to Z (light yellow). The difference between D and G is invisible to the naked eye in a mounted stone. We recommend F–H for optimal balance of rarity and value.
D–F: Colourless · G–J: Near Colourless · K–M: Faint Yellow
Clarity
Inclusions & BlemishesClarity describes the absence of internal inclusions and surface blemishes — microscopic characteristics that formed during creation. VS1 and VS2 grades are eye-clean in virtually all shapes and sizes, an excellent value sweet spot.
FL · IF · VVS1 · VVS2 · VS1 · VS2 · SI1 · SI2 · I1–I3
Carat
Weight, Not SizeCarat refers to a diamond's weight, not its dimensions. Two stones of equal carat can appear very different in size. Elongated shapes like oval and pear appear roughly 10% larger face-up than round brilliants of the same carat weight.
1 carat = 0.2 grams · Oval appears larger face-up than Round
From Rough to Radiance
The journey of a GV Diamond is one of meticulous transformation. It requires identifying the hidden geometry within a rough stone and planning cuts that respect the natural grain while maximizing brilliance.
1. Mapping & Analysis
Advanced 3D scanning technology maps inclusions and structural integrity.
2. Cleaving & Sawing
Precision laser cutting separates the rough stone with zero material waste.
3. Bruting & Polishing
Master artisans grind the facets to exact mathematical proportions.
