The Carat Standard

IGI report LG733514416

2.21 ct Round Brilliant Laboratory-Grown Diamond

89/100 · Refined

A strong, composed candidate on paper.

What reads well

  • The IGI Ideal cut grade corroborates the measured proportions.
  • Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
  • E color is in the colorless range.
  • VVS1 clarity: inclusions are not a practical visual factor.
  • No fluorescence: no haze risk to weigh.

What deserves a closer look

  • Crown 33.2° / pavilion 40.5° fall outside the pairing zone associated with strong light return.
  • Treatment status is not stated on the report. For a laboratory-grown diamond, ask whether it is as-grown or post-growth treated.

What to check on the exact stone

  • With a shallow 59.4% depth, can you see a glassy, see-through patch in the center?
  • Does the large table look bright but flat, with less colored fire than you expected?
  • Does this CVD diamond show any brown or gray undertone face-up in daylight?
  • Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
