Shape |
Pear cut diamonds are among the most popular diamond shapes and are becoming highly sought-after stones. While carat weight depends on a buyer's budget, the one-carat+ range is a good choice. |
Cut |
The 55-65% depth and 52-63% table are in the excellent range. Please carefully see the cut chart below for more details. |
L/W |
Depending on a buyer's preference, the 1.4-1.55 range is ideal for the length-to-width ratio. |
Color |
In terms of color, G or above is excellent. However, up to J color is fine if you have budget constraints. |
Clarity |
In terms of clarity, SI1 is fine
for under 1 carat. For above 1ct., go for VS2 or above. |
Certification |
We recommend that all diamonds be graded by the GIA or AGS, two of the best diamond certification labs in the world. Please review the section below on how to read a grading report carefully. |
Fluorescence |
Regarding fluorescence, medium blue fluorescence is fine in H-J color diamonds, though we recommend avoiding it in D to G colors. |
