Matched to Perfection!

Posted on: September 28, 2022

Matched Pair DiamondsNatural diamonds are rare and precious; just like fingerprints, every diamond is a unique piece of nature that has no identical match in the entire world. The differences, often subtle and sometimes only visible at a microscopic level, are amongst the many brilliant features that have made diamonds highly sought after treasures throughout history.
Therefore, finding a similar set of diamonds or an identical Matched Pair can be tricky!

“Matched Pair” par Excellence

Princess Shape match pair diamond StudsWhile diamonds may come in plenty of eye-catching shapes, some shapes are more popular than others for distinct settings of matched pair diamonds. Matching Pairs are essentially used in a set of earrings. They can also be used as side stones to compliment a centre diamond for rings, necklaces, bracelets and various other jewellery. Finding an identical match can further enhance the brilliance of a beautifully crafted jewellery set.

In Pursuit of Ultimate Match

Each diamond matched pair requires deliberate planning and has to be crafted to perfection with a lot of precision and accuracy. It is not only challenging but a work of art to get two stones to match in cut, colour, size, base length and gridle.
The Venus Grading System® (VGS) is our proprietary tool for describing diamonds in precise detail. The system matches a fancy shaped diamond pair only when more than 80% of their parameters match. Based on a combination of multiple algorithms of this comprehensive system, diamonds are compared to get the most identical matched pairs.It also superimposes wireframes of two diamonds on each other to make facet-to-facet comparison between stones.

At Venus Jewel, the matched percentage is decided upon not just the 4’C but upon additional parameters like:-
  • Polish
  • Symmetry
  • Lustre
  • Shade
  • Fluorescence
  • Length:Width Ratio
  • Table percentage
  • Average Diameter
  • Depth
  • Length
  • Width
  • Black inclusion
  • Centre inclusion
  • Table open
  • Lab
  • Curves and Corners for fancy shapes, being a few of them

  • Twin Diamonds from a Single Rough

    In some rare cases, matched pairs are recognised right from the beginning i.e. when a beautiful rough diamond comes directly from the mines to our factory; our experts try to find out if a matched pair can be crafted from the single piece of rough itself. They use their profound knowledge, keen foresight as well as latest technology, to conclude on a possibility of a matching pair. This demands greater understanding and perfection.
    Just like the overwhelming feeling a mother gets during sonography when she sees herself carrying twins; our craftsmen feel elated on seeing mother nature produce a twin diamond from a single rough.
    The amalgamation of asymmetrical lines, sharp faceted edges and geometric precision are characteristic of these rare, natural, beautiful and original diamonds.
