In a world of mass-produced jewelry, exclusivity is the ultimate currency. In 2026, the market has moved beyond the "standard 10" diamond shapes. Designers today aren't just picking diamonds; they are designing the diamond itself.
What is a Custom Cut?
Most wholesale diamonds are cut to maximize weight retention from the rough. A Custom Cut, however, is cut to maximize style. Whether it's a salt-and-pepper HPHT stone or a geometric "Kite" for an art-deco setting, custom cutting allows the stone to fit the design, rather than the other way around.
Kunlun Growth Quality Promise
Certificates don't tell the whole story. We reject ~35% of diamonds that pass standard IGI inspections but fail our internal checks.
- No Brown/Green Tint: Every stone is compared against our Master Set.
- No BGM (Milkiness): We filter out hazy crystal structures.
- Eye-Clean Guarantee: Real-world visual inspection, not just 10x loupe.
Top Trending Custom Shapes for 2026:
- Shield & Epaulette Cuts: Perfect as side stones for massive centers.
- Antique Rose Cuts: Offering a romantic, low-profile look with high surface area.
- Portrait Cuts: Flat diamonds used as "windows" to see through the stone.
How the Lab Advantage Changes Everything
Custom cutting natural rough is extremely risky—one mistake can cost thousands. With lab-grown rough, the lower cost of raw materials allows our cutters in Shenzhen to experiment with avant-garde designs that would be financially impossible in the natural world.
The Workflow: CAD to Stone
At Kunlun Growth, we bridge the gap between your iPad design and a physical stone. You send us a CAD file or a sketch. We select the rough Type IIa material and use high-precision laser sawing combined with expert hand-polishing to bring your specific vision to life.
