The Carat Standard

IGI report LG835668653

2.00 ct Marquise Laboratory-Grown Diamond

88/100 · Refined

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

What reads well

  • A 1.94:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic marquise range.
  • Face-up spread (12.60 × 6.49 mm) is typical or better for a 2.00 ct marquise.
  • Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
  • D color is in the colorless range.
  • VVS1 clarity: inclusions are not a practical visual factor.

What deserves a closer look

  • The table 65% sits outside the typical marquise range.
  • Screening only: bow-tie, windowing and contrast in a marquise can only be judged from images or video of this exact stone.
  • 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

  • Does the large table look bright but flat, with less colored fire than you expected?
  • Will the ring setting use protective V-tip prongs or a bezel to safeguard the two delicate points?
  • 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?
