Colorless, or near enough that only a grader's comparison stones would tell you otherwise. A white diamond carries no message but its own make, which leaves proportion, symmetry, and polish as the only things worth judging. We select for those rather than for the letter on the report.

The most engineered cut in the trade, fifty-seven facets arranged to return as much light as the rough allows. Optimized over a century for maximum brilliance, which is why so much of what is sold today looks alike. We select for the ones that do not: proportions cut for the stone rather than for yield.
