Carat Weight:

0.50

Carat Weight

0.50ct.

Carat refers to the weight of a diamond, which is directly proportional to its size. Use the slider to find the range you are interested in browsing.

Lab:

GIA

Lab

Mostly all our diamonds are independently certified from one of the world’s leading labs. Always ensure you are purchasing an independently certificated diamond to validate its quality, as many diamond retailers self-certify.

Polish:

Excellent

Polish

The overall condition of a finished diamond's faceted surfaces, including how smoothly the facets have been polished, whether any marks are visible from the polishing wheel, and how defined the edges of each facet are. Polish marks are almost always invisible to the unaided eye, but good polish is essential for maximum light performance.

Symmetry:

Excellent

Symmetry

Describes the alignment of the facets of the diamond. If facets are misaligned, the diamond may poorly reflect light. Symmetry is graded from Ideal / Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, or Poor. Symmetry grades of Good or higher have the least effect on the brilliance of the diamond and are suitable for the finest quality jewelry. Certain gem labs, such as Gemscan, incorporate Symmetry into an overall Cut grade.

Fluorescence:

Faint

Fluorescence

Very Strong
Strong
Medium
Faint
None

Describes the diamond's response to ultraviolet light. In diamonds with strong or very strong fluorescence, there may be some interference with the flow of light which causes a milky or oily appearance.

Depth %:

65.8

Depth Percentage

The height of a diamond, measured from the culet to the table, divided by its average girdle diameter. One of the basic proportions that contributes to a diamond's appearance, brilliance and fire.

Table %:

Table Percentage

The width of the diamond's table expressed as a percentage of its average diameter. A component of the overall cut grade, this measurement is critical to a diamond's light performance.

Measurements:

5.63 X 4.18 X 2.75 mm

Measurements

Diamonds are given three measurements to specify their dimensions. The measurements determine the length to width ratio and can indicate the quality of cut of the diamond.

Girdle Minimum:

Thin

Girdle Minimum

Where the crown and pavilion meet, defining the diamond's outline. Avoid extremely thin girdles, which can make a diamond more prone to damage, or extremely thick, which can cause the diamond to look smaller than diamonds of similar weight.

Girdle Maximum:

Very Thick

Girdle Maximum

Culet:

None

Culet

The facet or point at the bottom of a diamond pavilion. In preferred diamond cut grades, culets are generally undetectable to the unaided eye and graded none to small. Medium to large culets may have an impact on light performance.
