When purchasing any diamond accessory, some factors have been considered because those factors influenced buyers’ and sellers’ ability of decision making.

Let’s understand these 4’Cs for Diamond Grading.
CARAT WEIGHT: Carat denotes the actual weight of the diamond. It’s the Diamond’s apparent size. Carat can be defined as 0.200 milligrams and each one of them is equal to .20 grams. The value of diamond increases in accordance with its weight if the weight is higher then the price also goes up. Weight is the major factor that influences the price of diamonds.
CUT: In simplest words, how much light the stone or diamond reflects is the answer when we think of a diamond’s cut. It is an important factor itself as the quality of a diamond can be judged by it. there is a possibility that a stone has all three factors as great clarity, carat and colour and is still not liked by people because the diamond reflects only little light and thus looks dull and lifeless. However, if the diamond has a grade cut, it will radiate fire and sparkle. Well-shined Diamond has the capability to create a lure in the buyer’s mind to get it in their home.
COLOUR: The more colour or hint of colour in the Diamond the more it is on the poor-quality side. Yes, it is true, Diamonds are nearly colourless or a minor hint of yellow can be seen in them but clear colourless diamond is rare and their price will reflect it. However, Diamond comes in many colours.
CLARITY: It is the diamond’s prominent characteristic with the help of clarity grade, the diamond’s inclusion and external (internal flaws and blemishes) can be judged. The grading scale has some parameters or we can say levels.
These are:
FL (Flawless)- This is the purest and most highly-priced Diamond as under 10x magnification, no internal flaws and blemishes can be seen.
IF (Internally Flawless)- Here blemishes or external flaws can be seen but inclusion cannot be found till 10x magnification.
VVS1, VVS2, (Very very slightly included)- In this case, we can get a slight hint for internal and external flaws in 10x magnification.
SI1 and SI2 (Slightly included)- Highly visible internal flaws under 10x magnification.
I1, I2, and I3 (Included)- This is obvious visibility of flaws with the naked eye.
So, this is all about the 4Cs of the Diamond. On this basis of such, diamonds can be examined. At Ratanavali Arts, you can get exclusive designs and the best quality diamond.
