All diamonds graded SI2 or higher are eye clean , meaning no flaws can be seen by the naked eye. Berets and hair bands and pins to rein longer hairs in are also in fashion. Although the terms precious gem and semi precious gem have little meaning as the prices of all jewelry increase, the less expensive gems are probably safer buys from the point of view that there is less reason for anyone to try to sell a gem that isn t what it is supposed to be.
Explanation of Cut, Color and Clarity of This Diamond
Cut Quality The ideal cut diamond is a very precise mathematical equation, where diamond proportions and angles are cut to optimize the diamond's superlative optical properties, in particular it's high refractive index and color dispersion, to create a diamond of unequaled beauty with perfect balance of brilliance and fire. In layman's terms, the diamond is cut to make it the most beautiful diamond so it retains its intrinsic value.
Color I color diamonds are almost colorless. I color will be slightly detectable to the experienced eye. When cut to ideal proportions, the diamond will produce a warm intensity. I color diamonds are excellent value for the budget conscious and allow to save money or get a bigger diamond or a better cut.
Clarity The stones of SI2 clarity have inclusions which are fairly easy to see under a loupe with 10X power magnification. Such inclusions may be visible to an unaided eye depending on their location. SI2 clarity diamonds of G or H color look nearly perfect when mounted. For those looking for near perfection these sure come close.
