GIA report 2436269987

3.00 ct Pear Diamond

58/100 · Investigate

The report asks for a more careful visual review.

What reads well

  • A 1.48:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic pear range.
  • Face-up spread (11.64 × 7.84 mm) is typical or better for a 3.00 ct pear.
  • Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
  • Medium blue fluorescence can make L color face up a touch whiter in daylight.

What deserves a closer look

  • SI2 is often not eye-clean in a pear; view an image or video of this exact stone.
  • Clouds are referenced on the report; confirm the stone looks transparent rather than hazy.
  • A 65.9% depth is on the deep side for a pear; deeper pavilions are associated with a stronger bow-tie and hidden weight.
  • Surface-reaching characteristics are listed (cavity); check their position on the plot for durability.
  • Screening only: bow-tie, windowing and contrast in a pear can only be judged from images or video of this exact stone.

What to check on the exact stone

  • With 65.9% depth, does this stone face up smaller than a typical 3.00 ct pear?
  • Does the diamond look crisp and transparent in natural light, or is there any milky haze?
  • Does the feather reach the outer edge where a setting prong could put pressure on it?
  • Is the surface opening protected by a prong, or could it catch lint and risk chipping?
