The Carat Standard

GIA report 2517178981

3.00 ct Round Brilliant Diamond

94/100 · Signature

An unusually disciplined report profile.

What reads well

  • Crown 34° with pavilion 41° sits in the well-regarded pairing zone for brightness and fire.
  • The GIA Excellent cut grade corroborates the measured proportions.
  • Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
  • G color should face up white in most settings.
  • VVS1 clarity: inclusions are not a practical visual factor.

What deserves a closer look

  • Table 61% sits outside the preferred round range.

What to check on the exact stone

  • Can I see this stone in soft daylight away from store spotlights to verify its sparkle?
  • Does the sparkle look bright and even all the way out to the edges?
  • Does the large table look bright but flat, with less colored fire than you expected?
  • Does the feather reach the outer edge where a setting prong could put pressure on it?
