Natural Diamonds Should Mean More

Natural diamonds mean more than lab-grown, but when every cut is ideal, they all look the same. Customers want more—Facets of Fire delivers.

For centuries, diamonds have been the pinnacle of luxury—rare, expensive, and breathtakingly beautiful. And nothing embodied that more than the ideal-cut natural diamond. One look was all it took to recognize perfection.

But today? Ideal is everywhere.

The market is flooded with synthetics cut to the same proportions, allowing lab-grown sellers to claim their diamonds are “the same, but cheaper.” And it’s working. In 2024, lab-grown diamonds surged by 59%, now making up nearly 50% of the U.S. bridal market (Rapaport 2024).

This flood of synthetics has left natural diamonds struggling to stand out, raising a crucial question:

How do we make natural diamonds mean more in a world where ‘ideal’ is now just… average?

Fighting for the Future of Natural Diamonds

Lab-grown diamonds aren’t going anywhere, but neither is the demand for authenticity, rarity, and true luxury. Natural diamonds still have the power to capture hearts and inspire awe—but only if the industry rises to the challenge and embraces innovation.

That’s where Facets of Fire comes in.

Facets of Fire takes the timeless beauty of a natural diamond and unlocks its true potential. Using patented nanotechnology, diamond artisans etch hundreds of thousands of invisible nanoprisms onto the pavilion of each diamond. These nanoprisms act as facets within facets, amplifying light to unleash 7x MORE sparkle, fire, and brilliance.

The result? A brighter, visibly stunning diamond with a difference your customers can actually see—not just read about on a lab report.


It’s Time to Expect More

Unmatched Light Performance: Facets of Fire diamonds are visibly brighter than ideal-cut diamonds, with 7x more sparkle, fire, and brilliance.

Authentic Beauty: Facets of Fire pairs the history, authenticity, and rarity of natural diamonds with cutting-edge innovation, creating a patented diamond with an instantly recognizable beauty that synthetics can’t imitate.

Proven Results: When customers see the difference, they’re willing to pay for it. In a focus group of 940 people, 52% preferred Facets of Fire, and 61% of them were willing to pay more for its patented sparkle.

This isn’t just another diamond. It’s a natural diamond with an instantly recognizable sparkle that screams, "I'm worth every penny!"


Natural Diamonds That Mean More

Customers don’t want just “ideal.” They want extraordinary. They want a diamond that stops them in their tracks—a diamond that tells a story and feels as rare and special as the moment it’s celebrating.

Facets of Fire delivers that and more. Redefining natural diamond beauty, giving them a sparkle, fire, and brilliance no synthetic can match.

So, why settle for average when you can give your customers something unforgettable?

Facets of Fire: More Sparkle. More Fire. More Brilliance.
Because natural diamonds should always mean more.
