The 4 Cs: cut, colour, clarity<br />

and carat weight<br />

To carry the <strong>Canadian</strong><strong>Fire</strong> name, a diamond must meet specific and<br />

very narrow criteria for colour, cut, clarity and carat weight. Only<br />

diamonds that are graded as ‘excellent’ or ‘very good’ with regard to<br />

cut, symmetry and polish can bear the <strong>Canadian</strong><strong>Fire</strong> brand.<br />

Since 1939, the ‘4 Cs’ have defined the quality and rarity of a diamond.<br />

Now those who buy diamonds must also be concerned with a<br />

fifth C - Certified Origin.<br />
