The Carat Standard

GIA report 6475962540

1.52 ct Oval Diamond

80/100 · Considered

A balanced profile with a few questions to carry forward.

What reads well

  • A 1.50:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic oval range.
  • Face-up spread (9.42 × 6.26 mm) is typical or better for a 1.52 ct oval.
  • Faint fluorescence: no haze risk to weigh.

What deserves a closer look

  • Clouds are referenced on the report; confirm the stone looks transparent rather than hazy.
  • Confirm this SI1 oval is eye-clean from an image or video; the report plot shows where inclusions sit.
  • Thick to very thick girdle: a thick girdle carries hidden weight and can reduce face-up size (thicker points are common in fancy shapes).
  • Feathers are listed: check the plot for any that reach the girdle or surface, which matters for durability.
  • Screening only: for this oval, check images or video of the exact stone for the bow-tie (a dark band across the centre) and whether both ends look even.

What to check on the exact stone

  • With 63.6% depth, does this stone face up smaller than a typical 1.52 ct oval?
  • 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?
  • Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
