Its facet geometry is engineered to maximise brilliance, fire and scintillation, the three qualities that make a diamond come alive in changing light. When you see white sparkle, flashes of colour and that lively play of light as the stone moves, you are seeing a well cut round brilliant doing exactly what it was designed to do. It is also the safe, timeless choice. Trends in fancy shapes come and go, but a round brilliant has never looked dated. If you want a diamond that will feel as right in forty years as it does today, this is where most people land. ## How cut quality changes everything With a round, cut grade matters more than almost anything else. Two stones of the same carat weight, colour and clarity can look very different if one is cut to ideal proportions and the other is not. A shallow or heavy stone leaks light through the bottom and looks flat. We help you read the cut grade on the certificate so you understand precisely what you are paying for and why a well cut stone simply looks brighter. ## The widest selection we hold Round brilliants make up our largest and deepest loose inventory, so this is where you will find the most choice across carat weight, colour and clarity. Every stone is held physically in Beirut, fully certified, and ready to reserve. You can [browse our in-stock round diamonds](https://diamonds.com.lb/loose-diamonds/?shape=round) and compare certificates side by side, then decide at your own pace. ## Certified, and easy to verify Every diamond we sell is a natural stone graded by a respected laboratory such as GIA or HRD. The certificate number is yours to check directly on the laboratory's own website, so the grading is independently confirmed and never something you have to take on trust. As a dealer in the Beirut diamond trade, we have learned that honesty about a stone is the only foundation worth building on. ## Choosing the ring, and how delivery works Round brilliants suit almost any setting, from a clean solitaire to a halo or a pavé band.

For two reasons: cutting a round from the rough crystal loses more weight than most fancy shapes, and rounds attract the strongest demand of any shape. As a result, an oval, cushion or princess of the same weight and grades usually costs less per carat. The price ranges on our [diamond prices](https://diamonds.com.lb/diamond-prices/) page, drawn from today's stock, show the gap. ### How big is a 1, 1.5 or 2 carat round diamond? A well-cut round measures about 6.4 to 6.5 mm across at 1 carat, 7.3 to 7.4 mm at 1.5 carats and 8.1 to 8.2 mm at 2 carats. A stone cut too deep hides weight in its body and looks smaller from above, so compare the measurements on the report, not just the weight. Our guide to [carat size on the hand](https://diamonds.com.lb/diamond-carat-size-guide-hand/) shows the difference. ### Which colour and clarity should I choose for a round diamond? The round hides faint colour and small inclusions better than any other shape, so you rarely need the top grades. G or H colour usually faces up white in white gold or platinum, and many VS2 and SI1 rounds are clean to the naked eye. Put the budget into an Excellent cut first, then confirm on the 360° video that no inclusion is visible. ### Round or oval: which should I choose? Both are brilliant cuts with lively sparkle. The round returns the most light and has no bow-tie, the darker band some elongated stones show across the centre. An [oval cut diamond](https://diamonds.com.lb/oval-cut-diamonds-lebanon/) looks larger than a round of the same weight, lengthens the finger and usually costs less per carat. Choose the round for pure brilliance, the oval for size and a slimmer look. ### Can I see a round diamond before I pay for it? Yes. Every round in our Beirut stock has a 360° video and a GIA or HRD certificate, both sent on WhatsApp so you can judge the stone and check its report number before you reserve it with a deposit. You see the diamond itself when you pay the balance, at a collection appointment in Beirut or on free insured delivery within Greater Beirut.
