The whole truth about diamonds

1. How to choose good quality stones?
〰️
Diamonds have 2 main characteristics: color and clarity, which are defined on a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is the best quality and 10 is the worst quality. 〰️
Color gradation:
〰
- 1(D), 2(E) - exceptionally colorless;
- 3(F), 4(G) - rare colorless;
- 5(H) - colorless;
- 6(I), 7(J) - with a barely noticeable shade
- 8 (K), 9 (L) - with a slight shade
- 10 (M) - with a pronounced shade
〰️
Gradation of clarity (indicates the number of inclusions):
〰️
- 1(IF) - Internally Flawless
- 2(VVS1), 3 (VVS2) - Very, Very Slightly Included - 4 (VS1), 5 (VS2) - Very Slightly Included - 6(Si1), 7(Si2) - Slightly Included (inclusions may be visible to the naked eye)
- 8(I1) , 9(I2), 10(I3) - Included (inclusions are obvious to the naked eye)
As a matter of principle, we do not offer customers stones with characteristics below 3/3 (only 2/2.2/3.3/3 - E/VVS, F/VVS)
〰️

2. What is CR-57 and CR-17?
〰️
This is a diamond cut - round, 57 facets (quality standard) or round, 17 facets.
〰️
It's important to know! Cut KR-17 - these are fragments, chips, stones less than 1 mm. They have no aesthetic value, no purity, because are technological waste after cutting large stones. We strongly DO NOT RECOMMEND purchasing them.
