Raw Diamond & Slices

Yes — they are 100% genuine, earth-mined natural diamonds. The only difference from a classic engagement-ring stone is that these are raw, rough or uncut rather than cut and polished into a colorless gem. That natural state is exactly what gives them their organic look and their much lower price.

A diamond slice is a thin, flat cross-section cut from a natural rough diamond, so it is broad and shallow with a rustic, often translucent look. Polki slices are flat, largely unfaceted natural diamond pieces long used in traditional handcrafted jewelry. Both are prized for an organic, one-of-a-kind character rather than bright sparkle.

A raw diamond is an uncut natural crystal or rough stone; a slice is a flat piece cut from that rough; and a rose cut has a flat base with a faceted, domed top for a soft vintage glow. We carry all three so you can match the look to your design. See rose cut diamonds.

Because they are natural-color, often opaque rough stones sold by the piece or by weight, not colorless faceted gems graded on the 4Cs. You get real diamonds — with all their hardness and character — at a fraction of the price, which is what makes them so popular for handmade and designer jewelry.

Not in the bright, fiery way a faceted brilliant does. Raw diamonds and slices have a softer, natural luster and a more translucent, earthy glow. If you want more sparkle, look for our laser-cut, faceted and rose-cut options, which add facets while keeping that natural-stone character.

It is easier than many people expect. A lot of our slices and rough stones are flat-backed and laser-cut specifically for easy setting, and a bezel setting is ideal for protecting the edges, while prong settings work well too. Slices are popular for rings, statement earrings and pendants

Yes. Our raw diamonds and slices are natural, earth-mined and conflict-free. Each product page describes the stone honestly, and if you need specific sourcing details for a piece, just reach out.

Both, and we always disclose which. Many colors are completely natural — such as white, grey, black, yellow and cognac — while some are enhanced for a stronger hue, for example irradiated blues, heated blacks or color-enhanced pinks. The treatment is stated clearly on each product page.

Both. Many stones are sold in sets of 1, 2, 5 or 10 pieces, and larger stones and slices are often priced by carat weight (CTW). Sizes range from tiny a few millimeters up to bold 20mm-plus statement stones, including one-of-a-kind pieces. Each listing states the exact size and quantity.
