The term Hearts and Arrows, also known as H&A…refers to round brilliant diamonds that have been cut to a very high degree of three dimensional symmetry, also referred to as “optical” symmetry”. When looking through a special reflector device you will see a distinct pattern of 8 arrows when viewed from the TOP (the Crown) and 8 hearts when viewed from the bottom (the Pavilion)
The benefits of H&A diamond is optimizing the light handling capabilities to the extent that the diamond is proportioned and polished correctly, aligning the facets precisely in three dimensions enables each facet to do its specific job completely. Brightness, contrast and dispersion are optimized.
Excellence in craftsmanship, owning an H&A Diamond gives you pride knowing the diamond displays tiny hearts and arrows that can be seen with a special viewer and of course when the Diamond is “loose” and not in a setting where you are not able to view from the pavilion.
