CARAT

Diamond carat measurement determines the weight of a diamond, with one carat equalling 200 milligrams. At Birks, each diamond is carefully chosen to maximize its beauty and brilliance at every carat weight.

COLOUR

The GIA colour scale refers to the natural tint in diamonds, a symphony ranging from D (colourless) to Z (light yellow). Birks’ curated assortment of diamonds ranges from D to I in colour, a testament to our commitment to exquisite beauty and quality.

CLARITY

From the depths of the earth, diamonds emerge with tales of their journey. Within their intricate forms lie inclusions and blemishes mapping their unique passage. This natural process can result in a variety of “inclusions” (internal characteristics) and “blemishes” (external characteristics). Birks offers diamonds ranging from IF (internally flawless) to SI1 (small inclusions, nearly flawless to the naked eye). Our experts evaluate each unique diamond to ensure its exquisite quality.

CUT

Birks diamonds are selected to reflect and refract the light for maximum brightness and sparkle. With skilled hands, artisans sculpt perfect proportions and angles, through which diamonds harness and reflect the very essence of radiance. A finely proportioned diamond, cut by only the most skilled artisans, results in the best combination of brilliance, dispersion and scintillation.

Responsible Sourcing

Embracing our heartfelt commitment to cherishing the earth’s magnificence, we treasure every precious stone. Aligned with this passion, Birks wholeheartedly embraces the exacting standards of the Kimberley Process. Through this meticulous process, we ensure that each diamond is conflict free and responsibly and ethically sourced, reflecting our deep respect for the planet and its treasures.
