VVS vs. VS Because VVS diamonds are among the highest clarity grades, they carry a premium price tag. All quality factors being equal, most VS1 or VS2 (even some SI1) diamonds would have as much brilliance as VVS diamonds. For example, check this VSS1 ($11K) and this VS2 ($7K) di
VS clarity diamonds differ from Slightly Included (SI) and Included (I). The inclusions in the former are more difficult to spot, small, and less detectable even when examined by a professional jeweler. The type and size of inclusions determine the difference between VS1 and VS2. Inclusions are smal
A diamond's clarity grade establishes the count of inclusions and blemishes (flaws) present within the diamond. These internal characteristics emerge due to the diamond's formation as pure carbon deep within the Earth's core, subjected to immense pressure. Consequently, it's not uncommon for many diamonds to harbor solids,
Diamond clarity refers to its purity, with most mined and lab-grown diamonds containing inclusions—imperfections that make each stone unique. These inclusions, such as crystals, clouds, trace minerals, or feathers, can lower a diamond’s clarity grade, impacting its value and brilliance. While higher-clarity diamonds, like flawless ones, c
Key Factors The quantity of natural imperfections present in a diamond determines its clarity grade. Two key factors determine a diamond's clarity: blemishes, external flaws like chips and scratches, and inclusions, which refer to internal defects such as crystals and feathers. Further details on clarity categories are provided below.
When you see a diamond report that indicates the presence of beards in a diamond, please do not take the literal meaning. Bearding is an inclusion that occurs when cutting the stone. Diamond cutting or bruting is a rigorous process that involves heating and grinding the rough diamond crystal. As a result, m
The clarity of diamonds refers to the degree of imperfections or inclusions embedded in a diamond. Inclusions can make a diamond look ugly for many reasons. These imperfections also interfere with the light passing through the diamond and creating its sparkly reflection. Looking closely at the dia
Diamonds graded as VVS1 can put the most qualified grader to the test while detecting even under 10x magnification. These microscopic inclusions, which can comprise pinpoints, tiny crystals, or minor internal characteristics, are usually very minute. They barely affect the diamond's radiance and aesthetic appe
