You’ve selected a 0.96 carat Round lab 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:

Good

Very Good

Excellent

Rare Carat Ideal

Property	Target	Diamond
Cut	Excellent	Excellent
Symmetry	Very Good or better	Excellent
Polish	Very Good or better	Excellent
Girdle Percentage	2.5% - 4%	4.0%
Girdle Thickness	Thin to Thick	M. Thick
Table	54% - 60%	59.0%
Depth	59% - 63%	60.5%
Crown Angle	33° - 35°	32.1°

Your 0.96 carat Round lab diamond is graded D color (Colorless), and you can read more about D 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.

Our gemologists check for following color issues before recommending a diamond:

(K-Z)

(G-J)

(D-F)

Property	Target	Diamond
Color	K-D	D
Artificial Treatment	No	No
Fluorescence Color	None or Blue	None
Fluorescence Strength	Faint or less	None

Your 0.96 carat Round lab diamond is graded VS1 clarity, which stands for Very Slightly Included 1. Read more about VS1 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:

Property	Target	Diamond
Clarity	SI2 or above	VS1
Cavity	No	No

Etch Channel	No	No
Patch	No	No

A diamond's carat weight is determined by its size, with larger diamonds weighing more. Learn more about carat here.

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.

It is so beautiful and dainty. Rare Carat customer service went above and beyond to create the perfect ring even after we changed the center stone after they already starting working on the setting and they had to make a whole new halo mount for the new diamond. I thought I was being a pain in the neck to ask them to redo the whole thing but customer service was so awesome and was very happy to help. They even got the ring here so I got to give it to her for her birthday and Rare Carat Got it all done. I was very grateful for all their help.My future wife Absolutely loves it. The Company was very helpful and professional buying a diamond online was a great experience with much better prices then you would get at a store! I would recommend this company, and I already have to my son for his engagement ring in the future. You will save thousands of dollars.
