Quick and Easy Buying Guide

Carat weight: 1 carat = 200 milligrams = 6.5 mm diameter. Doubling weight doesn't double diameter.

Diamond clarity: FL/IF/VVS/VS = super expensive, near perfect. SI = best value if you can check a photo for obvious inclusions (defects).

 

Color: D-G = colorless, expensive, only if you have money to burn. H-J = best value. Can go lower in gold metal settings than white metal.

Cut: Better cut ratings let more light into a diamond, making it sparkle more. Very important property, don't skimp here.

Set a budget and minimum cut (Premium). Go J color for gold and I/H for white metals. Go searching for SI1/SI2 clarity diamonds at James Allen. Pick a diamond with small/no inclusions. Choose a ring setting and buy it risk-free (60-day returns).

VS is an abbreviation for Very Slightly Included - this VS2 clarity diamond contains some smaller inclusions that might or might not be easy to see under 10x magnification, but are rarely visible with the naked eye - however it can happen on the odd occasion. Put this 0.75 carat weight in perspective as you consider your purchasing choices - there are going to be other stones of about the same size which may provide more with regards to their cost and characteristics. This diamond's Ideal cut rating means it has very good proportions and very good or better polish and symmetry characteristics. $2920 will often get you a decent quality and size stone, including this particular one.

Don't ignore diamond characteristics beside the four Cs, such as girdle thickness - it can be important for reasons discussed in the article on girdles on this website.
