IGI report LG782683660
3.51 ct Emerald Laboratory-Grown Diamond
89/100 · Refined
A strong candidate on paper; confirm its light pattern in imagery.
What reads well
- Face-up spread (10.83 × 7.04 mm) is typical or better for a 3.51 ct emerald cut.
- Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
- D color is in the colorless range.
- IF clarity: inclusions are not a practical visual factor.
- No fluorescence: no haze risk to weigh.
What deserves a closer look
- A 1.54:1 length-to-width ratio is outside the classic emerald cut range; the outline will look more elongated than typical.
- The table 57% sits outside the typical emerald cut range.
- Screening only: for this emerald cut, check images or video of the exact stone for the "hall of mirrors" step pattern, any see-through window under the table and clean corners.
The reading, field by field
- Table · Favorable
- A 57% table is smaller than typical for an emerald cut (60–69%). Smaller tables tend to favor fire over broad, flat brightness.
- Total depth · Ideal
- 63.9% is within the typical 60–69% range for an emerald cut, keeping weight where it contributes to face-up size and light return.
- Length-to-width · Favorable
- A 1.54:1 outline is longer and slimmer than the classic 1.3–1.5:1 range for an emerald cut — a matter of taste, but worth seeing in person.
- Polish · Ideal
- Excellent polish is the top finish grade — facets are cleanly executed with nothing that would soften sparkle.
- Symmetry · Ideal
- Excellent symmetry is the top finish grade — facets are cleanly executed with nothing that would soften sparkle.
- Girdle · Ideal
- Medium: a durable girdle thickness that doesn't hide meaningful weight.
- Culet · Ideal
- Long: a keel-line culet, normal for elongated step and modified cuts.
- Color · Ideal
- D is in the colorless range and faces up white in any metal.
- Clarity · Ideal
- Internally Flawless (IF): inclusions, if any, are only visible under magnification.
- Fluorescence · Ideal
- None: no meaningful effect on appearance.
- Cut grade · Ideal
- Excellent as issued by IGI, on IGI's own scale. The measured proportions above tell you more than the label.
What to check on the exact stone
- With open step facets, is the center completely eye-clean without any visible dark marks?
- Does this HPHT-grown diamond look neutral white beside another stone in daylight, with no gray or blue cast?
- Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
