Cut:

4/5

You’ve selected a 2.50 carat marquise lab diamond. 0% of our users choose marquise 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 2.50 carat marquise lab diamond is graded E color (Colorless), and you can read more about E 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 2.50 carat marquise 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:

Diamond Size: 2.50 Carat

A 9 month review Sculpted Light 1.85 Oval. Ring has held up great. Still looks new. Just ordered a wedding band. Would recommend to anyone.

Not only do my Fiancee and I love her Wedding band and Engagement ring, we love the price, the looks, quality and every interaction we've had with customer service on the phone. There's no long wait times. They're open late. You actually speak to a human being from the US. Additionally, my recent conversation with Amina about getting the rings re-sized was so pleasant. She had energy, she was knowledge and provided detailed advice. Thank you Rare Carat.

Well worth the money. The ring is stunning. It’s a little scary buying an item for big $$$$$ sight unseen and over the internet- but Rare Carat is legit!!

Great info on selecting the proper size and metal to hold the diamond. Proper size recommendation, stops the ring from floating on the finger.
