IGI report LG785615166
2.56 ct Round Brilliant Laboratory-Grown Diamond
91/100 · Refined
A strong, composed candidate on paper.
What reads well
- Crown 33.2° with pavilion 41.1° sits in the well-regarded pairing zone for brightness and fire.
- Table 57% and depth 61.2% are within the classic round brilliant range.
- The IGI Ideal cut grade corroborates the measured proportions.
- Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
- F color is in the colorless range.
What deserves a closer look
- Treatment status is not stated on the report. For a laboratory-grown diamond, ask whether it is as-grown or post-growth treated.
The reading, field by field
- Table · Ideal
- At 57%, the table sits within the typical 53–59% range for a round brilliant, balancing brightness with fire.
- Total depth · Ideal
- 61.2% is within the typical 59.5–63% range for a round brilliant, keeping weight where it contributes to face-up size and light return.
- Crown angle · Ideal
- 33.2° sits in the 32–36° zone where crown angles typically balance fire and brightness.
- Pavilion angle · Ideal
- 41.1° is inside the narrow 40.5–41.3° zone where the pavilion returns light most efficiently.
- 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 To Slightly Thick (Faceted): a durable girdle thickness that doesn't hide meaningful weight.
- Culet · Ideal
- Pointed: no visible culet facet when viewed face-up.
- Color · Ideal
- F is in the colorless range and faces up white in any metal.
- Clarity · Ideal
- VVS2: inclusions, if any, are only visible under magnification.
- Fluorescence · Ideal
- None: no meaningful effect on appearance.
- Cut grade · Ideal
- Ideal 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
- Does this CVD diamond show any brown or gray undertone face-up in daylight?
- 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?
- Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
