Clarity is measured by what is not there. When a skilled gemologist grades
a diamond's clarity, he will downgrade the stone if he finds inclusions or blemishes. Inclusions are imperfections, cracks or spots of colors within the diamond itself. Blemishes are flaws on the exterior that may have been caused during cutting or polishing.
The following scale is used to grade diamond clarity:
F - In this case F is a very good and very rare grade. A diamond given an F grade is judged to be flawless.
IF - These diamonds are internally flawless and also extremely rare. They may have minor surface blemishes.
VVS1-VVS2 - These grades are given to diamonds that have very, very slight inclusions that are very difficult for even an expert to detect under a microscope.
VS1-VS2 - Diamonds in this category have very slight inclusions that are not easily seen under a microscope.
SI1-SI2 - The slight inclusions in these diamonds can be seen when magnified 10 times under a microscope.
I1, I2 and I3 - Diamonds at this grade-level have inclusions that are visible to the naked eye.
Clarity matters because flaws affect a diamonds ability to reflect light. Obviously, you probably want to avoid diamonds in the lowest clarity grade category. Beyond that let your eye be the guide. Does the diamond sparkle? Can you see any imperfections that distract from the beauty?
Color: Diamonds graded C and above for color are very rare and most likely out of your price range. Choose diamonds in the D-H color range. The fluorescence of the diamond will also be measured. Look for diamonds that have a fluorescent grade of none or blue. Avoid stones that have orange, yellow or green fluorescent qualities.
