IGI report LG791632855
1.80 ct Round Brilliant Laboratory-Grown Diamond
90/100 · Refined
A strong, composed candidate on paper.
What reads well
- Crown 33° with pavilion 40.9° sits in the well-regarded pairing zone for brightness and fire.
- The IGI Excellent cut grade corroborates the measured proportions.
- Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
- E color is in the colorless range.
- VVS2 clarity: inclusions are not a practical visual factor.
What deserves a closer look
- Table 62% and depth 58.8% sit outside the preferred round range.
- 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 · Closer look
- A 62% table is larger than typical for a round brilliant (53–59%). Large tables can read bright but flatter, with less fire and contrast.
- Total depth · Closer look
- 58.8% is shallower than typical for a round brilliant (59.5–63%). That spreads the stone face-up but raises the risk of windowing — a glassy, see-through center.
- Crown angle · Ideal
- 33° sits in the 32–36° zone where crown angles typically balance fire and brightness.
- Pavilion angle · Ideal
- 40.9° 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
- Thin to medium (faceted): a durable girdle thickness that doesn't hide meaningful weight.
- Culet · Ideal
- Pointed: no visible culet facet when viewed face-up.
- Color · Ideal
- E 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
- 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 a shallow 58.8% 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?
