A system to grade the clarity of your Diamond is in place to help determine its value. The number and size of inclusions or imperfections determines the clarity grading. Most imperfections in gem quality Diamonds are not visible to the naked eye.
The diamond clarity system uses numbers and letters to portray the extent of flaws within each stone. The number and size of inclusions or imperfections determines the clarity grading. Clarity is graded under 10-x magnification. Grades correspond to the International Clarity Grading Scale.
