At this stage, the rough diamond undergoes precision division into smaller, more manageable pieces. Modern techniques often employ laser cutting for its unparalleled accuracy, minimizing the loss of valuable material. This method allows for intricate cuts that traditional mechanical sawing might not achieve, enabling the creation of unique diamond shapes and sizes. The division process is pivotal, laying the groundwork for the diamond’s final form. It requires skilled technicians to execute complex cuts that balance the preservation of carat weight with the enhancement of the stone’s natural beauty.
