The Carat Standard

GIA report 2457215395

1.50 ct Radiant Diamond

71/100 · Character

Distinctive trade-offs that should be viewed deliberately.

What reads well

  • Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
  • Medium blue fluorescence can make I color face up a touch whiter in daylight.

What deserves a closer look

  • SI2 is often not eye-clean in a radiant; view an image or video of this exact stone.
  • A 1.56:1 length-to-width ratio is outside the classic radiant range; the outline will look more elongated than typical.
  • The depth 74.4% sits outside the typical radiant range.
  • Extremely thick girdle: a thick girdle carries hidden weight and can reduce face-up size.
  • Screening only: bow-tie, windowing and contrast in a radiant can only be judged from images or video of this exact stone.

What to check on the exact stone

  • With 74.4% depth, does this stone face up smaller than a typical 1.50 ct cut-cornered?
  • Does the feather reach the outer edge where a setting prong could put pressure on it?
  • Is this SI2 diamond eye-clean face-up from about 10 inches away?
  • Can I view this stone in daylight to see if the blue fluorescence helps it look whiter?
