Raw diamond stones come in all shapes, but once the stray materials are chipped away, the basic shape of the purest, most transparent parts of the stone can generally be described as pyramids, sometimes two pyramids joined at the base. Early admirers of diamonds capitalized on these natural shapes. Diamond jewelry that has survived the ages reveal this natural shape, with points of the pyramids mounted outwardly. This orientation positions the stone's natural facets so that light can be reflected and refracted back to the eye of the observer.
