120.4 carat Type IIa D colour diamond recovered from Lulo

Crystal

Crystal is the basic shape of the rough diamond as it is created in nature. The shape is affected by geological variables such as pressure and contamination, which is why different shapes of crystals are formed.

 

The crystal is made of solid and unified matter, and its organized particles create a grid formation that determines its shape.

 

The classic and most perfect crystal shape – a double pyramid with eight equal sides – is called an Octahedron.
