The Carat Standard

IGI report LG827611398

0.91 ct Square Cushion Laboratory-Grown Diamond

82/100 · Considered

A balanced profile with a few questions to carry forward.

What reads well

  • A 1.04:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic cushion range.
  • Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
  • D color is in the colorless range.
  • No fluorescence: no haze risk to weigh.
  • Medium to slightly thick girdle balances durability and weight retention.

What deserves a closer look

  • SI2 is often not eye-clean in a cushion; view an image or video of this exact stone.
  • The depth 59.4% sits outside the typical cushion range.
  • Face-up area is unusually large for the weight, which can indicate a shallow cut with a see-through window.
  • Screening only: for this cushion, check images or video of the exact stone for the facet pattern (bold, chunky flashes or finer "crushed ice") and any dark areas under the table.
  • 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?
  • Is this SI2 diamond eye-clean face-up from about 10 inches away?
  • Does this cushion produce broad, chunky flashes or small needle-like crushed-ice sparkle?
  • Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
