What You Need to Know Before Buying

Understanding Gemstone Clarity

Have you ever wondered why some gemstones look clearer and more radiant than others? The answer lies in clarity, one of the Four Cs (Color, Cut, Clarity, and Carat) used to evaluate gemstone quality.

What is Gemstone Clarity?

Gemstone clarity refers to the absence or presence of inclusions (internal marks) and blemishes (surface marks). These natural characteristics form during the gemstone’s creation deep within the Earth.

How Clarity Affects Value

Higher clarity = Higher price

Internally flawless (IF) gemstones are rare and valuable.

Inclusions can add uniqueness

Some collectors appreciate visible inclusions as they provide a gemstone’s unique fingerprint.

Cut and setting can enhance clarity

Skilled cutting techniques can minimize the impact of inclusions.

Choosing the Right Clarity for You

  • If you prefer flawless beauty, opt for VVS or IF stones.
  • If you want a balance between quality and price, VS or SI stones are a great choice.
  • If you love unique, natural characteristics, I-graded stones offer authenticity at a lower cost.
