GIA report 6224042937
1.50 ct Radiant Diamond
86/100 · Refined
A strong candidate on paper; confirm its light pattern in imagery.
What reads well
- A 1.22:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic radiant range.
- Face-up spread (7.28 × 5.97 mm) is typical or better for a 1.50 ct radiant.
- VVS2 clarity: inclusions are not a practical visual factor.
- Medium blue fluorescence can make I color face up a touch whiter in daylight.
What deserves a closer look
- The table 72% sits outside the typical radiant range.
- Thick to very thick girdle: a thick girdle carries hidden weight and can reduce face-up size (thicker points are common in fancy shapes).
- I color in a 1.50 ct radiant may show some warmth, especially at the corners.
- Screening only: for this radiant, check images or video of the exact stone for the sparkle pattern (defined flashes or "crushed ice") and any dark or see-through corners.
The reading, field by field
- Table · Closer look
- A 72% table is larger than typical for a radiant (60–70%). Large tables can read bright but flatter, with less fire and contrast.
- Total depth · Ideal
- 66.6% is within the typical 61–68% range for a radiant, keeping weight where it contributes to face-up size and light return.
- Length-to-width · Ideal
- A 1.22:1 outline is within the classic 1.2–1.5:1 range for a radiant.
- Polish · Ideal
- Excellent polish is the top finish grade — facets are cleanly executed with nothing that would soften sparkle.
- Symmetry · Favorable
- Very Good symmetry is a fine result; the difference from Excellent is rarely visible without magnification.
- Girdle · Closer look
- Thick to very thick: a thick girdle carries weight in the rim, so the stone can face up a little smaller for its carat weight. It is durable, though.
- Culet · Ideal
- None: no visible culet facet when viewed face-up.
- Color · Favorable
- I may show slight warmth at the corners of a radiant, especially next to white metal. Yellow or rose gold tends to complement it.
- Clarity · Ideal
- VVS2: inclusions, if any, are only visible under magnification.
- Fluorescence · Favorable
- Medium Blue fluorescence is rarely visible in normal lighting.
What to check on the exact stone
- Does the large table look bright but flat, with less colored fire than you expected?
- Can I view this stone in daylight to see if the blue fluorescence helps it look whiter?
- Is extra carat weight trapped in the thick girdle rim where it does not add finger presence?
- Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
