By all odds, brilliancy is ‘the first requisite to dia mond values. By brilliancy, we mean the refraction of light that produces cofor flashes in all the hues of the rainbow. Such a diamond in trade circles is called a “busy” diamond, for it is in constant action when exposed to light-^natural or artificial. It is brilliancy that makes one diamond worth a great deal more than another of the same weight. Brilliancy is something that can not. be judged except by sight, and for this reason diamonds should not be bought by mail, but only from a reputable local dealer who can be depended upon to help you make a proper selec tion. Fine brilliancy depends very largely upon the shape and cutting. SULZBACHER JEWELRY CO. Established 1884 SSBBQ&TKKBSKCJ&KIEESGHBIKSYK?'
