Whois & Analysis for limelightdiamonds.com

The Koh-i-Noor, also spelt Kohinoor and Koh-i-Nur, is one of the largest cut diamonds in the world, weighing, and part of the British Crown Jewels.

Diamond is a solid form of carbon with a diamond cubic crystal structure.

At room temperature and pressure it is metastable and graphite is the stable form, but diamond almost never converts to graphite.

Diamond is renowned for its superlative physical qualities, most of which originate from the strong covalent bonding between its atoms.

In particular, it has the highest hardness and thermal conductivity of any bulk material.

Those properties determine the major industrial applications of diamond in cutting and polishing tools and the scientific applications in diamond knives and diamond anvil cells.

Jewellery (British English) or jewelry (American English) consists of small decorative items worn for personal adornment, such as brooches, rings, necklaces, earrings, pendants, bracelets, and cufflinks.

Jewellery may be attached to the body or the clothes, and the term is restricted to durable ornaments, excluding flowers for example.

For many centuries metal, often combined with gemstones, has been the normal material for jewellery, but other materials such as shells and other plant materials may be used.

It is one of the oldest type of archaeological artefact – with 100,000-year-old beads made from Nassarius shells thought to be the oldest known jewellery.

The basic forms of jewellery vary between cultures but are often extremely long-lived; in European cultures the most common forms of jewellery listed above have persisted since ancient times, while other forms such as adornments for the nose or ankle, important in other cultures, are much less common.

Diamond type is a method of scientifically classifying diamonds by the level and type of their chemical impurities.

Diamonds are separated into four types: Type Ia, Type Ib, Type IIa, and Type IIb.

The impurities measured are at the atomic level within the crystal lattice of carbon atoms and so, unlike inclusions, require an infrared spectrometer to detect.

Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is deposition method used to produce high quality, high-performance, solid materials, typically under vacuum.

The process is often used in the semiconductor industry to produce thin films.
