Understanding
light performance
What makes diamonds beautiful is the way they interact with light.
The way a diamond reflects and refracts light determines its beauty. GemEx is dedicated to delivering scientific and technological solutions to enhance the appreciation of the beauty and craftsmanship of diamonds and gemstones worldwide.
WHAT WE LOOK FOR IN A DIAMOND
Our proven light performance analysis
Each GemEx certified diamond has been individually measured with the BrillianceScope® Analyzer. The BrillianceScope® is a patented imaging spectrophotometer developed by an electrical engineer, a mechanical engineer and a physicist to measure a diamond for bright white light (known as Brilliance), bright color light (known as Fire) and scintillation (known as Sparkle).
Since diamonds are nearly always in motion as you wear them, we must evaluate the light return using multiple lighting positions. The BrillianceScope® captures and evaluates five different light measurements and the IdentiView™ image for each diamond.
