Carat

Diamonds are measured in metric carat (ct), the standard unit of weight for diamonds, which equals 0.20 grams or 1/142 of an ounce. Carats are divided into points with each point representing 1/100th of a carat. A 1.00ct diamond is also represented as 100 points. A 0.75ct is also represented as 75 points. The most obvious distinguishing appeal of a diamond is the carat weight of it and it’s not the most important aspect in determining the value of a diamond, it may be the least important factor in some cases. The carat measures the actual weight of the diamond and not the size. Diamonds that are the same size may alter the exact carat weight. It is known that diamonds of the same proportion, a larger diamond would be more valuable then a smaller diamond.

A metric carat can be expressed in different measurements. For example, a one carat diamond can be expressed as:

1 carat

0.20 gram

1/5 gram

200 milligrams

100 points

4 grainer

The following table gives you an approximate guide to diamond sizes in millimeters (mm) with approximate carat weight. The numbers displayed under carat weight are approximate carat weights and the numbers displayed under the diamond shapes are approximate millimeters.

Color

Diamonds are found in all colors. The finest diamonds are colorless; which make them rare and expensive. Beyond the preference for a colorless diamond, however, the color of a diamond does not affect its brightness or sparkle. The truth is, in some cases, when a good quality diamond is mounted in a setting, if there is any negative color aspects on that particular diamond, the setting will offset the negative color.

Diamonds are graded on a scale D- Z, D being the most desirable and Z being least desirable. The following are the color scale standards that GIA labs use:

(D-F) “colorless”, (G-J) “near colorless”, (K-M) “faint yellow”, (N-R) “very light yellow”, (S-W) “light yellow”, (X-Z) “fancy yellow”.

The following are the color scale standards that AGS labs use: (0-1) “colorless”, (1.5-3.0) “near colorless”, (3.5-4.5) “faint yellow”, (5.0-7.0) “very light yellow”, (7.5-9.5) “light yellow”, and (10) “fancy yellow”.

Listed below is a visual of GIA & AGS color grade chart:

GIA

Colorless

Near Colorless

Faint Yellow

Very Light Yellow

Light Yellow

Yellow

AGS

0	0.5	1	1.5	2	2.5	3	3.5	4	4.5	5	5.5	6	6.5	7	7.5	8	8.5	9	9.5	10
Colorless			Near Colorless				Faint Yellow			Very Light Yellow					Light Yellow					Yellow

GIA & AGS laboratories grade diamonds for color under certain, specific circumstances. GIA uses alphabets (D – Z) and AGS uses numeric (0 – 10) to determine a color grade for a specific diamond. The diamond must be loose, positioned in the correct posture, under the correct lightning and background, and viewed from the correct angle and distance. The diamond is also compared to a set of master stones and then issued either a letter or number for its color grade.

Clarity

The clarity refers to the existence of inclusions in a diamond. Each diamond contains a unique internal characteristic; which is also known as inclusion. Inclusions are natural identifying characteristics that are included within the diamond as they were formed in nature. Blemishes are inclusions that are external. When a diamond is being graded for its clarity under a 10X magnification, the size, nature of the inclusion, color of the inclusion, location, and quantity are taking into measure to determine which clarity grade that diamond will receive. The clarity of a diamond is rated using a scale that contains letters and numbers that clearly indicate which type of clarity rating that diamond will be assigned. Listed below is a clarity chart of GIA & AGS Laboratories.

GIA Clarity Chart:

FL: Flawless
Free from internal and external flaws (very rare)

IF: Internally Flawless
Free from internal flaws, may contain external characteristics that can be easily polished out without affecting the diamond

VVS1: Very, Very Slight Inclusions
The table if free of inclusions and it’s very difficult to locate under 10X magnification

VVS2: Very, Very Slight Inclusions
Small imperfections located anywhere in the diamond

VS1: Very Slight Inclusions
The table is only allowed the smallest inclusions and small flaws throughout the rest of the diamond

VS2: Very Slight Inclusions
Very small internal flaws and small external imperfection

SI1: Slight Inclusions
Small internal flaws, eye clean diamond

SI2: Slight Inclusions
Small internal flaws which are detectable under a 10X magnification, could also be a eye clean diamond

I1: Inclusions
Flaws that can be detected easily under a 10X magnification and sometimes to the naked eye, difficult to see while observing with the naked eye in some cases

I2: Inclusions
Enormous and a lot of flaws, can be detected by the naked eye

I3: Inclusions
Enormous and a lot of flaws, can easily be detected by the naked eye

AGS Clarity Chart:

0 => Flawless / Internal Flawless (FL/IF)

1 => Very, Very Slight Inclusions (VVS1)

2 => Very, Very Slight Inclusions (VVS2)

3 => Very Slight Inclusions (VS1)

4 => Very Slight Inclusions (VS2)

5 => Slight Inclusions (SI1)

6 => Slight Inclusions (SI2)

7 => Inclusions (I1)

8 => Inclusions (I2)

9 => Inclusions (I2)

10 => Inclusions (I3)

*GIA & AGS laboratories have professional diamond graders that grade the diamond for its clarity; there are approximately a minimum of two diamond graders that grade and examine the diamond. The diamond is carefully examined by professionals and we here at Star Facets respect GIA & AGS diamond graders. The clarity of the diamond has a little or no effect of the overall appearance of a diamond. The only time you have to start to worry about the look and clarity of the diamond is when you start searching diamonds in the lower grades, I1 and lower. What makes the diamond beautiful is the way the diamond was cut.

Cut

A major characteristic among consumers today is how a diamond is cut; how does the diamond of choice appear? To determine how a diamond is proportioned to allow the most brilliance takes a lot of information and understanding. The cut of the diamond is considered one of the most important factors when determining which diamond to choose. The proportion and finish of a diamond is what determines the sparkle of it, the cut, which also refers to the shape of the diamond. The beauty of a diamond is how well of a sparkle it gives out, the way the light enters the diamond and how much of that same light returns back to your eye.

Diamonds come in all shapes or form, ideal cut diamonds are the best. At loosediamondexchange.com, we offer round cut brilliant, princess cut, emerald cut, radiant cut, oval cut, pear cut, marquise cut, heart cut, asscher cut, cushion cut and trillion cut diamonds. Shop today for your cheap, round cut, princess cut, cushion cut or any diamond cut of your choice at loosediamondexchange.com.

Listed below are illustrations of how light is reflected through a well proportioned, ideal cut diamond. As you can see by the illustration provided, when the light hits the diamond, all of the reflections of the light are coming back to your eye. There are other directions how light travels once it enters the diamond. The illustrations below show you how light leaks from the side and also from the bottom of the diamond.,

Diamonds that are too shallow or too deep may result in light leaking from the side and bottom of the diamond. Another fact that results for diamonds being to shallow and/or too deep is that the appearance of the diamond may look larger than it really is. Technically speaking, shallow and deep diamonds are not poor diamonds. They just happen to have those features which results in light leaking from the diamond and not having as much light reflect back to your eye. They are still “high quality” diamonds that are uniquely produced and cut to the best proportion available.

Loose Diamond Exchange has provided you a chart of GIA and AGS cut grade scale.

GIA Cut Grade Scale

Listed below are the depth and table percentages that help Loose Diamond Exchange determine a cut grade on a diamond

Loose Diamond Exchange Round Diamond Cut Grade Chart
	Ideal/Excellent	Very Good	Good	Fair	Poor
Depth %	58 – 63	57 - 65	56 - 65	55 - 67	<55 or >67
Table %	52 – 58	51 - 62	51 - 64	50 - 70	<50 or >70

The depth and table percentages are very important in determining the cut grade of a diamond but there are others factors involved to also help classify the cut grade. Face-Up appearance, design, craftsmanship, light performance, proportion factors, and finish are also some of the criteria’s that are taking into consideration while determining a cut grade. We hope that the information provided here is intended as a basic, standard guide in helping you understand and selecting the finest cut grade of a diamond of your likings.

Diamond Care

At Loose Diamond Exchange, we want to make sure that your diamond is properly taking care of, since you have invested your money into it. Listed below are some information and tips in keeping your diamond looking great and taking care of.

Diamonds are very hard substances and could easily scratch other diamonds. To avoid any harm to your diamond, make sure, when stored, that you separate your diamond from other diamonds. Make sure that if your diamond is not being worn; store it by itself to avoid any scratches on the diamond. If you scratch or chip your diamond, you would instantly lose value on the diamond. We know that you want to wear your diamond every single minute of the day; we don’t blame you, that is why you have purchased such an item in the first place. We would advise you not to wear your diamond during any physical hard work and would need to avoid getting in contact with any such chemicals. To better care for your diamond, every month or two touch your diamond jewelry, check and see if any stones are loose or if you see any signs of damage on the ring. When you wear your diamond jewelry every day, there are going to be normal wear and tear on them. That’s why, from time to time, we recommend checking your diamond and if you notice any signs of damage or the stone(s) are loose, take it in to a well reputable jeweler in your area and let them check the diamond out. This process should be done at least 2 to 3 times a year to make sure that your diamond is properly taking care of, remember, you have invested your money into it. Take care of your investment.

If you are still not certain what you can and can’t do to make sure that your diamond is well taking care of, e-mail us at inquiry@loosediamondexchange.com or call toll-free at 877-732-2387 and we would be more than happy to further assist you in taking care of your diamond.

Diamond Certificate

The diamond certificate is a statement issued by an independent gemological laboratory that the diamond being evaluated has been examined by an experienced diamond grader. Loose Diamond Exchange strongly recommend you buying a diamond that is accompanied with a diamond certificate. We only sell diamonds that are accompanied with a certificate. GIA, EGL USA and AGS independent gemological laboratories are more accurate and reputable labs that we recommend and sell. There are other independent laboratories out there that are accompanied with a diamond but we recommend GIA, EGL USA and AGS laboratories. If you are interested in a diamond that is not accompanied with a diamond certificate, have a jeweler send it out to a reputable independent gemological laboratory to have it examined by an experienced diamond grader so that the diamond would have its own unique characteristic. With this being done, you would be able to always identify your diamond. Some of the characteristics that are shown on the diamond certificate are as listed: shape, measurements, weight, color, clarity, proportions, finish, and fluorescence as seen in the diamond while being evaluated using various high-tech gemological instruments. Listed below is information to help you understand and be more familiar with GIA, EGL USA and AGS diamond laboratories that we offer and respect. Please take the time and visit the diamond laboratory websites by clicking on their images below for further information.
