ONLY NATURAL DIAMONDS

Fire & Ice stands at the forefront of innovation and craftsmanship in the diamond industry. Renowned for its revolutionary cutting techniques and exceptional quality, Fire & Ice Diamonds are the culmination of extensive research on the behavior of light reflection in diamonds, conducted by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and the American Gem Society (AGS). Leveraging this scientific understanding, Fire & Ice Diamonds are cut to precise angles and proportions to maximize their radiant light and sparkle. As a result of the patented design, Fire & Ice diamonds are more brilliant, brighter, and whiter compared to all other Excellent and Ideal cuts. Each Fire & Ice diamond is a unique masterpiece created by nature over millions of years, carrying with it a sense of rarity, authenticity, and enduring value.

THE PATENTED FIRE & ICE CUT

More than any other factor of the 4Cs, cut is critical to how a diamond’s facets interact with light. Fire & Ice Diamonds, from the smallest to the largest, are always cut to precise angles to prioritize brilliance over carat weight.

*Every Fire & Ice GIA-certified diamond consistently delivers a bigger, brighter and whiter appearance, and has a narrower set of acceptable proportions than GIA Excellent and AGS Ideal cut diamonds.

BRILLIANCE BEYOND EXCELLENCE

Precision & Consistency

While many diamonds are spread too shallow or cut too deep to retain weight from the original rough — at a dramatic sacrifice of potential Brilliance, Fire and Scintillation — all Fire & Ice Diamonds are cut to precise angles and proportions to maximize the radiant light and sparkle that emerge from the top.

Bigger

The precise angles of Fire & Ice Diamond facets give it the largest diameter possible while efficiently reflecting light through the top. This allows the diamond to avoid light leakage and the “fisheye” effect while appearing larger than most other GIA Excellent and AGS Ideal cut diamonds of the same weight.

Brighter

When cut to Fire & Ice proportions, the light entering a diamond from any direction is completely reflected through the top as white light (Brilliance), dispersed rainbow colors (Fire), and sparkling flashes (Scintillation). Inside the diamond, the facets act as mirrors — and the secret is the careful arrangement of these facets which achieve maximum Brilliance balanced by Fire and accented by Scintillation.

Whiter

The immense Brilliance of the Fire & Ice diamond is the result of white light reflected through the top of the diamond. This is what allows a Fire & Ice Diamond to appear one or two color grades better than its actual GIA color classification.
