Cut:

4/5

You’ve selected a 2.99 carat Oval lab diamond. 0% of our users choose oval 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:

Your 2.99 carat Oval lab diamond is graded H color (Near Colorless), and you can read more about H color diamonds here.

Color is graded beginning with D (Colorless). Learn more about diamond color here. The market prices colorless diamonds higher as they are rarer, but some people prefer warmer colored stones.

Clarity:

7/7

Your 2.99 carat Oval lab diamond is graded VS2 clarity, which stands for Very Slightly Included 2. Read more about VS2 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:

Diamond Size: 2.99 Carat

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!

Absolutely amazing experience all around. I upgraded my wedding ring for my 10 year anniversary and wanted a stunning marquise. Found Rare Carat through ads and Reddit...was absolutely blown away by their vast selection and was able to find EXACTLY what I wanted. Their team was SO responsive and answered any questions or concerns I had within the day, literal white glove care. The diamond was better than I could have ever imagined and I will absolutely never buy my stones from a store again. You have so much more control and time to decide (with accurate pics/video) what is best for you, no store pressure or trying to sell you a low grade stone for top dollar. Saved us so much money and is an absolute stunner. Pic shown is my actual RC diamond in its setting. Thanks, Rare Carat!
