The Carat Standard

GIA report 7556169244

1.50 ct Round Brilliant Diamond

87/100 · Refined

A strong, composed candidate on paper.

What reads well

  • Crown 36° with pavilion 40.8° 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.
  • H color should face up white in most settings.
  • No 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 round brilliant is eye-clean from an image or video; the report plot shows where inclusions sit.
  • Surface-reaching characteristics are listed (cavity); check their position on the plot for durability.
  • Feathers are listed: check the plot for any that reach the girdle or surface, which matters for durability.
  • The report notes surface graining; these can soften transparency in some stones.

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 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?
