The clarity of a diamond is usually a collective term for observing the internal and external flaws of the diamond with a 10x magnifying glass or microscope. The external flaws of a diamond refer to some defects that are not original but caused by later processing, including extra small faces, polished lines, scratches, pits, The clarity of the diamond is usually observed with a 10x magnifying glass or a microscope. A general term for external defects. The external flaws of a diamond refer to some defects that are not original but caused by subsequent processing, including extra small faces, polished lines, scratches, small pits, growth lines, and damage. According to the distribution of different numbers, sizes and shapes of diamond defects. GIA divides diamond clarity into six major levels: FL, IF, VVS1-2, VS1-2, SI1-2, I1-3. GIA Diamond Clarity Grading System FL (Flawless Level): The diamond grader observes under a 10x magnifying glass, and the inside and outside of the diamond are flawless. IF (Internal Flawless Level): Although the inside of the diamond is flawless, the outside has very small flaws that can be removed by repolishing. VVS (very slight flaw level): Divided into two levels VVS1 and VVS2, it is difficult for a diamond grader to find very tiny or very inconspicuous flaws under a 10x magnifying glass. VS (micro-flaw level): Divided into two levels, VS1 and VS2, the size, number and location of flaws under a 10x magnifying glass are between difficult to determine and a certain degree of easy determination. SI (small flaw level): Divided into two levels SI1 and SI2, significant flaws, diamond graders can easily see under a 10x magnifying glass. When the SI2 diamond is viewed from the pavilion side, the inclusions are visible to the naked eye. I (defect level): I1, I2 and I3 are divided into three levels, I1: the diamond grader is obvious under a 10x magnifying glass, it is difficult to observe from the crown with the naked eye, and internal defects do not affect its brightness; I2: internal defects are large and many , Visible to the naked eye, and affect the brightness; I3: the internal flaws are extremely obvious, and affect the brightness and transparency of the diamond. (GIA diamond clarity grading system diagram) In addition to the international standard GIA, there are currently many international clarity grading systems. Such as: HRD (Belgian High-Class Diamond Council), CIBJO (International Jewelry Federation) and other systems. Regardless of the system, the clarity grading of a diamond is based on the diamond characteristics observed under a 10x magnifying glass. (Comparison of the clarity grading of various institutions) The higher the clarity level, the purer the diamond. You can select the relevant diamond clarity level according to the use of the diamond. Generally speaking, the clarity of the collectible diamond can be FL, IF, VVS-2, married For grade diamonds, VVS-2 and VS-2 are recommended. If you are looking for cost performance, you may choose SI1-SI2 clarity grade. The higher the clarity grade, the more valuable the diamond. The price may be more than hundreds of thousands, even millions or tens of millions. Therefore, it is best to choose according to your own economic situation when buying.
