diamond request. Be sure to mention the approximate carat weight or the dimensions in millimeters along with
the shape and the approximate clarity grade and color grade.
- Example: a round brilliant cut weighing 1.5 carats with "H" color and "VS2" clarity
- Example: a 7mm square princess cut with "G" color and "SI3" clarity
To better understand color and clarity grades in diamonds, please see below.
Diamond "CLARITY GRADES":
- INCLUDED (grades "I1", "I2", and "I3"): These three clarity grades describe diamonds with medium to large natural
inclusions which are obvious to the unaided eye when looking down into the diamond under normal lighting conditions. The
inclusions become larger and/or more easily detectable from grade "I1" to grade "I2" to grade "I3".
- SLIGHTLY INCLUDED (grades "SI1", "SI2", and "SI3"): These three clarity grades describe diamonds with small natural
inclusions which are impossible or very difficult to observe by the unaided eye when looking down into the diamond, but
which are easy to see when looking down into the diamond with ten times magnification. The natural inclusions become more
easily detectable with magnification from grade "SI1" to grade "SI2" to grade "SI3".
- VERY SLIGHTLY INCLUDED (grades "VS1" and "VS2"): These two clarity grades describe diamonds with very small
natural inclusions which are impossible to observe by the unaided eye, and
which are only very faintly visible looking down into the diamond with 10 times magnification. The natural inclusions become
slightly more easily detectable with magnification from grade "VS1" to grade "VS2".
- VERY, VERY SLIGHTLY INCLUDED (grades "VVS1" and "VVS2"): These two clarity grades describe diamonds with very, very small
natural inclusions which are impossible to observe by the unaided eye, and
which are difficult for a skilled observer to see when examining the diamond with ten times magnification. The natural
inclusions become slightly more easily detectable with magnification from grade "VVS1" to grade "VVS2".
- INTERNALLY FLAWLESS (grade "IF"): This clarity grade describes diamonds with no visible inclusions
when a skilled observer examines the diamond at ten times magnification.
The "COLOR" Of Diamonds:
Colorless to yellow diamonds are graded for color using the GIA letter scale from "D" to "Z" begining with the letter "D"
for the colorless end of the grading scale, and with increasing yellow progressing through the alphabet to "Z". Since most natural
diamonds have color somewhere between colorless and yellow, the GIA color grade letter scale does not apply to diamonds with other natural
colors such as pink, green or blue; instead, diamonds with these colors are simply referred to as natural fancy color diamonds.
Diamonds are considered to be colorless or white with GIA color grades "D", "E", and "F". The "D" color grade is completely pure with no
color whatsoever, and in color grades "E" and "F" there is just a very slight increase in the amount of yellow-ish color.
Diamonds in the "G", "H", "I", and "J" color grades are considered to be near-colorless. At a casual glance they
appear to be colorless (white), and they are much more affordable than the truly colorless diamonds, but if placed upside down
on a white background, then a faint amount of slightly yellowish color can be detected, especially in the "I" and "J" color grades. With all other factors
remaining the same, the price per carat for a natural diamond decreases with each letter color grade as you progress from the color
grade "D" on through the alphabet to the letter "N" color grade. After the letter "N"color grade, the yellowish tones begin
getting strong enough that the value per carat of the natural diamond actually begins to increase.
The "Size" Of Diamonds:
The dimensions of round brilliant cut diamonds are usually measured in millimeters. Below are given the approximate carat
weights based on diameter sizes for round brilliant cut diamonds with ideal proportions. Each diamond can vary up to about
20% from these weight estimates depending mainly on the diamond's depth and the thickness of it's girdle.
- A 5.0mm diameter round brilliant cut diamond weighs approximately 0.50 carats
- A 6.0mm diameter round brilliant cut diamond weighs approximately 0.82 carats
- A 7.0mm diameter round brilliant cut diamond weighs approximately 1.32 carats
- A 8.0mm diameter round brilliant cut diamond weighs approximately 1.91 carats
- A 9.0mm diameter round brilliant cut diamond weighs approximately 2.62 carats
- A 10.0mm diameter round brilliant cut diamond weighs approximately 3.45 carats
- A 11.0mm diameter round brilliant cut diamond weighs approximately 4.95 carats
- A 12.0mm diameter round brilliant cut diamond weighs approximately 6.52 carats
