The Carat Standard

GIA report 3565297356

1.00 ct Cushion Diamond

86/100 · Refined

A strong candidate on paper; confirm its light pattern in imagery.

What reads well

  • A 1.04:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic cushion range.
  • Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
  • F color is in the colorless range.
  • VVS2 clarity: inclusions are not a practical visual factor.
  • No fluorescence: no haze risk to weigh.

What deserves a closer look

  • Face-up area is about 12% below typical cushions of this weight, suggesting hidden weight in depth.
  • Screening only: bow-tie, windowing and contrast in a cushion can only be judged from images or video of this exact stone.

What to check on the exact stone

  • With 70% depth, does this stone face up smaller than a typical 1.00 ct cushion?
  • Does this cushion produce broad, chunky flashes or small needle-like crushed-ice sparkle?
  • Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
