Diamond clarity is an essential factor in determining a gem’s quality, reflecting the presence of natural imperfections known as inclusions (internal) and blemishes (external). Formed deep within the Earth under immense heat and pressure, these unique characteristics make each diamond distinct and exceptional. Clarity not only enhances a diamond’s beauty and brilliance but also serves as a marker of its natural origin, setting it apart from synthetic or simulated counterparts.
Clarity is evaluated using the GIA Clarity Scale, the global standard for assessing diamond quality. This scale ranges from Flawless (showing no inclusions or blemishes under 10x magnification) to I3 (where inclusions are visible to the naked eye). Flawless diamonds are rare and highly coveted, representing the pinnacle of purity and value.
The clarity grade is determined by evaluating the number, size, and visibility of these natural imperfections. Generally, the fewer and less noticeable the inclusions, the higher the clarity grade, resulting in a more valuable diamond.
At Calegie Zand, our commitment to exceptional quality ensures that every diamond we offer meets the highest standards. We work exclusively with diamonds that have a minimum clarity grade of VS (Very Slightly Included). This ensures that any inclusions are minimal and invisible to the naked eye, allowing each diamond to capture and reflect light beautifully, enhancing its natural brilliance.
Our dedication to clarity means that every diamond in our collection radiates with a purity that speaks to its heritage. The precision and care we apply to our selection process ensure that each piece not only looks stunning but maintains its value and integrity over time.
While most inclusions are microscopic and do not detract from a diamond’s overall allure, higher clarity grades allow for better light reflection, resulting in a more brilliant, radiant appearance. At Calegie Zand, we believe that choosing a diamond with a high clarity grade ensures the perfect blend of beauty and legacy, giving you a piece that shines with unmatched elegance.
By understanding how clarity affects a diamond’s appearance and brilliance, you can make an informed choice that suits both your style and budget. Explore our collection and find the ring and diamond that best reflect your taste, confident in the knowledge that every stone has been carefully evaluated for its quality and beauty.
