Kite cut diamonds are chiseled into different variations of elongation of their shape, from being highly elongated and wide to having a symmetry in a narrow profile. The choice boils down to what you prefer. An elongated kite-shaped lab-grown diamond is best for attracting attention. While, a narrow diamond is well-suited to more subtle, everyday pieces.
You can optimize a kite diamond’s corner definitions. It can have sharp, well-defined corners that stand out as unique, but require caution due to the risk of chipping. On the other hand, the diamond can be softened at the corners to give a more subtle appearance and better protection.
Depending on your budget and personal preferences, you can choose the diamond’s color grade, clarity, and carat weight, with lower grades compromising on brilliance but available at more affordable prices, and vice versa for higher grades. Smaller carat lab-grown kite diamonds, from 0.5 to 1.5 ct, can be purchased for $150 to $700. Higher carats can be priced between $1000 and $2000.
