How can I assess the clarity of my diamond?


Clarity is an indication of a diamond’s purity and is determined by a diamond’s naturally occurring internal characteristics. These are sometimes not visible to the naked eye and they are what make each diamond unique. The characteristics, or inclusions, may look like crystals, feathers, clouds or dark spots and the quantity, size, and location of these inclusions affects a diamond’s value. Diamonds with fewer and smaller inclusions are generally more brilliant, assuming that the colour and cut are the same.

The US Federal Trade Commission established the jewellery industry’s standards for diamond clarity based on 10-power magnification. A diamond is graded by its departure from flawless – the complete absence of inclusions under 10x magnification.

Less than 1% of diamonds have no inclusions and are called flawless (FL) or internally flawless (IF). VVS diamonds are also rare. VS diamonds are of superior quality and are used in fine jewellery. This clarity grade is more important as the diamond size increases. A large percentage of jewellery is made with SI quality diamonds. These are perfect for diamond studs or multi-stone diamond earrings, rings and bracelets or as accents in gemstone rings. I quality diamonds are acceptable as well for diamond jewellery or as accents but the sparkle is reduced by the number and location of inclusions.
