The Carat Standard

IGI report LG742542764

1.57 ct Oval Laboratory-Grown Diamond

90/100 · Refined

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

What reads well

  • A 1.40:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic oval range.
  • Face-up spread (9.27 × 6.61 mm) is typical or better for a 1.57 ct oval.
  • Table 59% and depth 62.5% fall in the typical oval range.
  • Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
  • D color is in the colorless range.

What deserves a closer look

  • 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.
  • 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

  • In a face-up video, does the bow-tie flicker as the stone tilts, or stay a fixed dark band across the center?
  • 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?
