Wabi-Sabi is a world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection. In Wabi-Sabi philosophy, there are several aesthetic principals in achieving Wabi-Sabi such as Shibumi; finding beauty in the understated, Kanso; simplicity, and Fukinsei; assymetry or irregularity. The brilliant cut diamond is a traditional engagement ring choice, but diamond slice rings are that something special while they’re not as well known as polished brilliant cut diamond, diamond slices have charms of their own.  Most diamond slices wouldn’t grade well in traditional cuts, chosen for their exceptional natural patterns inside each raw diamond. In diamond slices, inclusions are desired – celebrated even – rather than unwanted flaws. Unique, edgy and quirky, these diamonds are like no other. An interpretation of beauty found in the imperfect, in organic shapes and outside of the standard beauty box. Sliced diamonds are natural works of art.  Wearer of this ring will be a part of a special group of people who know of, and can appreciate the unconventional beauty of the diamond slice.
