Achieve consistent matching with Pala Cut-To-Order Diamonds

We use state-of-the-art equipment for precision cuts and consistent layout matches. Sourcing your diamonds from Pala holds the following guarantees:

  • Every diamond in your parcel is cut to the exact measurements you need, with tight tolerances
  • Every diamond has controlled measurements, tolerance and depth control as specified
  • Our Top Make diamonds are all cut, polished and finished in the same factory for consistency
  • Every diamond goes through our two-stage quality control process, with polishing completed once in the factory, and again at the Pala Diamond Company

Top Make, step-cut diamonds

While Pala Diamonds provides stones in all shapes, we’re proud to be specialists in step cuts. The step-cut facet structure is one of the oldest and is currently experiencing a resurgence in popularity. While a brilliant cut may have more sparkle, step cuts are considered by many to be more elegant due to the simpler and cleaner facet structure. 

The flat surfaces on a step cut can make inclusions more visible, particularly on the crown, so clarity is a key consideration. And, due to their popularity as surrounding stones, precise cutting and matching is essential. That’s why every one of our step-cut diamonds comes from our Top Make range. We specialise in emerald, Asscher and baguette cuts, each produced in the same factory to ensure consistent proportion, finish and polish. This reduces any cut inconsistencies and allows tighter tolerances. 

Straight-edged brilliant-cut fancies

Our other options include straight-edged brilliant-cut fancies such as princess cut, elongated radiant cut, square radiant cut and cushion cut. Once we have your measurements and quality requirements, we can cut each diamond to strict tolerances and deliver them within 12-15 days. 

Our princess-cut diamonds are ideal for jewellery manufacturers, with competitive prices and tight tolerances in both length and width. The precise measurements make channel setting a very efficient process.

We realise that round-edged fancies in smaller sizes can be difficult for jewellery manufacturers to procure consistently, which is why we provide  as small as 0.03ct in Heart, Marquise, Pear and Oval cuts – with quality control in measurement tolerance, symmetry and polish assured.
