Clarity is one of the Four C's, representing the
four variables that are used to calculate the quality and value
of a diamond. The term "Clarity" refers to the presence or
absence of tiny imperfections (inclusions) within the stone,
and/or on the surface of the stone. As a consumer, it is
important to learn and understand the clarity designations found
within the "Four C's" diamond grading system.
Diamond Designations
Looks something like a football, when viewed straight down from
the top. Some Marquise are cut too thin and suffer from a
markedly dark center (commonly called the bow tie effect). This
effect is eliminated by paying attention to the depth (want
lower sixties) and the crown height (want close to 14%) The
light passes through the back of the stone due to the
criticality of the angles needed to reflect the stone being too
steep. Stay in the sixty percent range for this lovely cut, and
avoid extremely thin girdles like the plague!!! If you're
offered a stone under 58% it will only look good under halogens
:)
Your relationship with us is founded on trust and assurance of
the company’s integrity. Greendale Diamonds maximises the
potential of every stone. Any number of individual diamonds may
share the same 4Cs, but each is unique and we exclusively choose
the best.
