Jewelry Education
Learn the essentials behind lab-grown diamonds, ring design, precious metals, certification, and jewelry care before choosing your Lunéa Paris piece.
Lab-Grown Diamonds
Lab-grown diamonds have the same crystal structure and core optical properties as mined diamonds. They are graded using the same 4Cs framework: cut, color, clarity, and carat weight.
The 4Cs
Cut affects brilliance and sparkle. Color describes how colorless a diamond appears. Clarity evaluates internal and external characteristics. Carat measures weight.
Diamond Shapes
Popular shapes include round, oval, cushion, pear, emerald, radiant, princess, Asscher, marquise, and heart. Shape changes the overall look of the jewelry and how large the stone appears face-up.
Diamond Cut
Cut quality influences how efficiently a diamond returns light. Proportions, symmetry, and polish all contribute to brilliance.
Diamond Clarity
Clarity grades describe the visibility and nature of inclusions and surface characteristics under standardized grading conditions.
Diamond Color
For white diamonds, color grades generally describe the absence of body color. Higher color grades appear more colorless.
IGI Certification
IGI grading reports independently document characteristics such as carat weight, measurements, color, clarity, and other identifying details when certification is included with a product.
Ring Settings
Common setting styles include prong, bezel, pavé, halo, hidden halo, cathedral, basket, and channel settings. Each balances appearance, security, profile, and maintenance differently.
Lunéa Paris offers select styles in 14K white gold, 14K yellow gold, 14K rose gold, and platinum. Appearance, density, durability, and maintenance differ by metal.
Ring Styles
Explore solitaire, halo, hidden halo, side-stone, three-stone, vintage-inspired, eternity, wedding band, and colorstone designs to match your preferred silhouette.
Choosing the Right Ring
Consider lifestyle, preferred stone shape, setting height, band width, metal color, maintenance, ring size, and budget together rather than choosing by carat weight alone.
Jewelry Care
Store fine jewelry separately, remove it during heavy physical work or exposure to harsh chemicals, and clean it gently with methods appropriate for the metal and gemstones.
