Why Are Round Brilliant Diamonds the Most Expensive? Are They Worth It?

Diamonds symbolize love, luxury, and prestige, but not all cuts hold the same value. Among them, the round brilliant cut stands as the most sought-after—and the priciest. But what makes it so expensive? And does its cost truly reflect its worth? Let’s break it down.

Why Do Round Brilliant Diamonds Cost More?

1. Excessive Rough Diamond Loss

When crafting a round brilliant diamond, nearly 60% of the rough stone is discarded. Because of this high material wastage, the final polished diamond ends up costing significantly more per carat than other cuts.

2. Maximum Brilliance and Light Performance

A round brilliant diamond is designed for optimum light reflection, thanks to its 58 precision-cut facets. This structure enhances its ability to sparkle intensely, making it the most luminous diamond shape available.

3. Market Demand and Popularity

The round brilliant cut dominates the diamond industry, making up approximately 75% of diamond sales, especially for engagement rings. This consistent consumer preference drives up its price, as high demand always leads to premium costs.

4. Strict Grading Standards

Unlike fancy-shaped diamonds, round brilliant diamonds are evaluated under strict cut parameters by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). Achieving a high-quality round cut requires precision, adding to both labor intensity and pricing.

Is a Round Brilliant Diamond the Right Investment?

If you’re considering purchasing one, here’s why it may or may not be worth it:

✔ Unmatched Radiance – No other shape reflects light as beautifully. ✔ Retains Value – Due to its popularity and desirability, round diamonds have better resale value than many fancy cuts. ✔ Versatile Elegance – Whether set in an engagement ring, diamond bracelet, or pendant, it complements all jewelry styles. ✖ Higher Cost – If you’re on a budget, consider adjusting clarity or color to make it more affordable.

Alternative Diamond Cuts That Cost Less

If you're looking for brilliance without the hefty price tag, consider oval, pear, or cushion-cut diamonds. These shapes retain more of the rough stone, making them more affordable while still delivering eye-catching sparkle.

Final Thoughts

The round brilliant cut diamond is a true classic, offering the highest level of brilliance and elegance. While it comes at a premium price, it remains a worthy investment for those who value unmatched sparkle and long-term desirability.

Choosing the Perfect Engagement Ring: A Guide for the Modern Buyer

Engagement rings symbolize love and commitment, but finding the perfect one can be daunting. From understanding preferences to staying within budget, several factors can complicate this special purchase. This guide will explore common challenges and provide practical solutions backed by data.

1. Understanding Your Partner’s Style

Problem: One of the biggest challenges is knowing your partner’s style. With endless designs and settings, making the wrong choice can lead to disappointment.

Solution: Pay attention to their jewelry preferences. Observe whether they prefer white gold, yellow gold, or platinum. Notice if they wear classic or contemporary styles. A survey by The Knot revealed that 72% of women drop hints about their ring preferences, so subtlety is key. Additionally, consider asking close friends or family for advice. Creating a Pinterest board can also help visualize and narrow down options.

2. Budgeting Wisely

Problem: Many believe that a significant investment is necessary for an engagement ring, often causing financial strain.

Solution: Determine a budget that reflects your financial situation without pressure from societal norms. According to a study by The Knot, the average cost of an engagement ring in 2022 was $6,000. However, there is no rule that dictates how much you should spend. Consider alternatives such as lab-grown diamonds, which can be 20-40% less expensive than mined diamonds while offering the same quality. Another option is selecting a smaller carat size with a high-quality cut to enhance brilliance.

3. Ensuring Ethical and Sustainable Choices

Problem: Ethical concerns about diamond mining practices can make buyers hesitant.

Solution: Opt for conflict-free diamonds or lab-grown diamonds. A 2021 study by Bain & Company found that lab-grown diamonds have significantly less environmental impact compared to mined diamonds. Furthermore, brands like Beverly Diamonds and others offer certified conflict-free diamonds, ensuring that your purchase does not contribute to unethical practices. Choosing lab-grown diamonds or certified conflict-free options allows you to make a responsible purchase without compromising on beauty or quality.

Conclusion

Choosing the perfect engagement ring involves understanding style preferences, budgeting wisely, and considering ethical options. By paying attention to subtle hints, setting a realistic budget, and opting for conflict-free or lab-grown diamonds, you can make an informed and thoughtful choice. Remember, the best ring is one that reflects your partner’s style and values while staying true to your budget and ethical considerations.

Bonne-Fortune Grocery Set

Published: 9-26-2023 | Updated: 9-28-2023 SUMMARY “The Bonne-Fortune series is the latest hit from Freezer Time Industries, receiving top honors at both FridgeCon and the ShinyThings, Inc. Expo. Give your store some retro-futuristic flair and bring all the customers to the yard!” This is a set of 13 moderately priced objects for grocery stores and other retail spaces. Shelves are designed to help you maximize space in/around displays, including a shelf (endtable OMSP) which holds objects at an angle. The set is intended to be modular but not too complicated – some assembly required (see below). Fridges function like shelves – so they won’t keep spoilable food from going bad. They have space for sale items and additional shelving but need to be shifted upward once. Several maxis-themed recolors and an invisible recolor (in case you need it for the carousel display) are included. Additional recolors are available on this site under the #ts2recolors and #co2recolors tags.

DETAILS Requires All Eps/SPs. §100-500 | Buy > Surfaces > Shelves Buy > Deco > Sculptures Buy > Lighting > Standing/Floor Lamps Everything is repo’d to one of the following objects: Carousel Display End, and Fridge 001– these items are REQUIRED for textures, etc. to display correctly in-game. The Bonne-Fortune Carousel Lite uses whatever recolors you have for the EverGlow Plutonium Rod (Nighlife EP), including THESE. **Since the invisible recolor was made first, the game may reference it when regenerating thumbnails. This doesn’t impact the look/use of objects in-game at all. ITEMS

3 Fridges Bonne-Fortune Refrigerator 001 (1328 poly), Bonne-Fortune Refrigerator 002 (1323 poly), Bonne-Fortune Refrigerator 003 (~1400 poly)

Modular Shelving & Deco Bonne-Fortune Shelf 001 (572 poly), Bonne-Fortune Shelf 002 (534 poly), Bonne-Fortune Shelf 003 (572 poly), Bonne-Fortune Carousel Lite (pictured with a default neon recolor; 1048 poly), Bonne-Fortune Carousel End Shelf (572 poly), Bonne-Fortune Carousel Center Shelf (580 poly), Bonne-Fortune Area Signs 001-002 (576 poly)

Carousel Display Bonne-Fortune Carousel Display End (1940 poly), Bonne-Fortune Carousel Display Center (383 poly), Bonne-Fortune Carousel Lite (pictured again with one of my Nightlife Neon Recolors applied)(1048 poly) DOWNLOAD (choose one) from SFS | from MEGA *A known game bug may disable some OFB shelf slots. Not all players experience this bug in the same way, but if you do – there is a long-standing fix for it. If you cannot access more than 2 slots on shelves, download ONE of these fixes: MORE_Custom-objects-placeable-on-shelves (Numenor, 2006) MORE_Custom-objects-placeable-on-shelves+LOCKEDTILES (Numenor, 2006) Object Freedom 1.02 (Fway, 2023) SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED

1) Place a refrigerator (remember to shift upwards once) or Carousel End/Center pieces (the carousel parts are deco; place end/center parts on the same tile). Use “move objects on/off” and/or “snap to grid true/false” cheats to add the second End piece to the carousel.

2) Use the same cheats to place shelves but make sure to add your sale items to them first. Adding items first makes things easier because if you try to put objects above a shelf with empty slots, the game may think you’re trying to put it on that shelf (including other shelves).

3) For the Carousel End Shelf (use it with the curvy part of the Carousel End), place an item on the shelf,  and shift it in place until the item looks like it is sitting on the carousel.

4) Take advantage of the invisible recolors OR use the OMSP Controller (select SilentLucidity OMSPs) to make this shelf invisible/visible as needed. Do NOT use the invisible recolor if you’d rather use the OMSP controller.

5) You may need the Tile Blocker to keep sims from walking through parts of the display (i.e. the carousel). It is included with the meshes and in the collection file. Just be sure that you place it between/behind whatever shelving you add to the carousel – don’t accidently block those shelves.

6) The Carousel Lite is OPTIONAL deco – place it on the same tile as the Carousel End/Center pieces. It is repo’d to the EverGlow Plutonium Rod (neon light) from the Nightlife EP. As you can see in the pics above, the default recolors emit colored light. Custom recolors will emit a soft glow, but no bold colored light.

7) Area Signs 001-002 are optional deco as well – place and shift them as needed.
