Hi! I'm Gillian, and I'm a GIA Gemologist for the Rare Carat team. Thanks for reaching out.

I read the GIA Report for the following diamond: GIA 1216833947 Emerald 3.02 CT I VVS1.

I adore this diamond! It's bold and dramatic with an impressive 3.02-carat weight. The 'VVS1' is bright and vibrant, ideal for providing the diamond's mesmerizing mirror-like glow.

It's beautifully cut with equally excellent polish and symmetry. The 'I' color is warm and welcoming, ideal for metals like rose gold or yellow gold.

I highly recommend this diamond for you.

You’ve selected a emerald diamond, like 0% of our users. Learn more about what to look for in emerald diamonds here.

Cut is the most important factor. When an experienced gemologist picks up a diamond grading report, their eyes go to very specific values. They are looking to see if these fall within the desired ranges. Seemingly unimportant values like the depth percentage have a large effect on how your diamond will sparkle - and these values differ for each shape.

Follow the checklist prepared by our gemologists to see how your diamond fares. If it misses by a little bit on one or two, that’s fine, but we recommend trying to find a stone that passes on all:

Your diamond is graded VVS1 clarity, which stands for Very Very Slightly Included 1. Read more about VVS1 clarity diamonds here, or learn more about diamond clarity in general here.

There are minimum clarities our gemologists prefer for each shape, but beyond that clarity is a matter of budget and preference. People typically aim for an eye clean stone. Also, our gemologists have certain deal-breakers when it comes to clarity. For example, our gemologists always avoid stones with a cavity, because with one wrong hit your diamond can crack.

Use the checklist below to ensure your diamond passes. Consult us before purchasing to see if any other nuanced issues are present:
