‘The Red Process’ is a sophisticated technique in diamond enhancement that seeks to improve a diamond’s color, clarity and brilliance. It is achieved through a set of thermal- and chemical-based procedures which are artfully designed to enhance the dispersive properties of the diamond without compromising its structural integrity and toughness.
The infusion of heat and chemicals used in the red process helps in the elimination of included and color graded diamonds to produce diamonds of higher brightness and vividness. These processes are extensively used within the jewelry industry and within gemological laboratories as a means of optimizing the ’face’ value of the diamond without compromising its natural characteristics.
This process is also used in the crafting of luxury jewelry, high-end collections and fine accessories in which diamonds are guaranteed to achieve a higher grade with a better finish. The diamonds are then set into engagement rings, earrings or custom designed jewelry pieces. Irrespective of the type of adornment that is made using the diamond, this process adds to the overall looks and value, making them more sought out gems in the international market.
The Primary advantages of this processes on diamond are:
? Improve diamond’s color and clarity
? Uses chemicals and heat for treatment
? Eliminates inclusions and color grade discrepancies
? Maintains the durability and brilliance of the diamond
