Cut:

8/8

You’ve selected a 0.78 carat Round natural diamond. 0% of our users choose round diamonds. Learn more about them 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:

Clarity:

7/7

Your 0.78 carat Round natural diamond is graded SI2 clarity, which stands for Slightly Included 2. Read more about SI2 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:

However, it's important to note that carat weight is not the same as size, as other factors such as depth and shape can also impact how large a diamond appears.

I have purchased two rings and have had excellent customer service from them. I completely changed my order for the first ring and it wasn't any problem. Both rings are beautiful and I will be making more personal purchases. Shipping was descrete and insured.

Comparing natural diamonds online was easy, GIA certification is a big plus, being able to select ring and setting was excellent. It did take 4 weeks from click to delivery, but it was worth the wait, she loved the ring, and said yes, whew.

I was scared to buy a ring online because I wasn’t sure it would be a real diamond but after seeing the reviews for rare carat, I decided to go for it and I am so happy that I did! I found a diamond and a setting that I loved and I chatted with the rare carat team a lot about the ring and they were always so helpful and willing to answer my questions. At one point the diamond I wanted was no longer available and I had already paid for it and the rare carat team instantly helped me find a new diamond and get everything settled in less than an hour. They were also true to their word when talking about pricing and everything else that comes with buying the ring online. So although I was nervous at first about buying a ring online, I would highly recommend. Also the ring I got was gorgeous! I am so happy with the results and the diamond is so pretty!
