The only way to measure a diamond’s true beauty is with the GemEx BrillianceScope.GemEx Systems Inc. has developed an instrument that visually records a diamond’s Light Performance or essentially its beauty.The BrillianceScope uses the approach of specifically measuring the light that is returned through the diamond.It provides a scientific and objective method of evaluating a diamond using clear visual images.
The BrillianceScope measures the three components of sparkle:
White Light (Commonly referred to as brilliance.) The BrillianceScope Analyzer measures the percentage of the diamondreturning bright white light to the observer.
Colored Light (Commonly referred to as fire.) The BrillianceScope Analyzer measures the percentage of the diamond returning bright colored light to the observer.
Scintillation(“Scintillation is the term used for changing colors, the radiance and sparkle of the rays when the stone is moved or when the light source changes.”DIAMOND GRADING ABC, Varena Pagel-Theisen.)The BrillianceScope Analyzer measures the number of light points and determines how they change from position to position.
All of these factors can me summarized as Light Performance.Since Light Performance is closely correlated to cut, the best scientific method available was thought to be through measuring the geometry of the diamond.However, it has been known for decades that two diamonds of ideal proportions can have significantly different Light Performance or beauty.The Star 129 diamonds have been proven to be the most brilliant diamonds cut today.
95% of Diamonds
The Star 129
Each Star 129 diamond is accompanied by a GemEx Light Performance Analysis Certificate, qualifying and quantifying its beauty.
Every Star 129 diamond will score High to Very High in performance, and often the Star 129 will even exceed the parameters established in the Light Performance Analysis, in all three measures of light.
Most round brilliant cut diamonds, including many AGS Ideal cuts, will score Low to Medium when analyzed.
When the average consumer compares an Ideal cut (AGS “000”)round brilliant to a Star 129 diamond, the results are always the same; the Star 129 will be chosen every time as being the most brilliant and eye catching diamond.
Many people think that the Star 129 will be a more expensive diamond because of its beauty, but this is not so.The Star 129 diamonds will be priced the same, if not less, than a true “000” Ideal cut diamond.This allows the consumer to make a confident selection knowing that they are purchasing the most brilliant diamond on the market, a diamond that will possess more visual brilliance than all of her friend’s diamonds.
