Polished rough diamonds are stones that are partially polished and are found in mines with natural colored diamonds. Most rough are cut into standard shapes (round, cushion etc), then completely polished. Polished rough are cut without changing their basic shape, which means that the faceting is done according to the natural configuration of the stone and often with minimal numbers of facets. White and traditional fancy colored diamonds tend to be more transparent, and transmit light. These diamonds are translucent (light passes partially through) and opaque (light does not pass through).

The artistic inclusions in many of the stones are arranged in patterns with picturesque scenes reminiscent of modern art or landscaping, adding further to their uniqueness. Each stone is different from all others. These enigmatic natural colored diamonds come in reds, browns, greens, grays, and peach translucent and opaque colors. The unusual stones come in a range of cuts which includes fancy shapes, rose cuts, beads, and diamond slices (tablets, sometimes called “icy diamonds”), and are artfully transformed into jewelry with hand-made designs made to resemble each diamond’s natural state.
