CARAT/ WEIGHT
The "carat" is a measurement of weight in a diamond that is used to indicate size. The standard definition of a carat is fixed at 200 milligrams (1/5 of a gram). One carat is divided into 100 ‘points’ so that a diamond of 25 points is described as a quarter of a carat, or 0.25 carats.
Size is the most obvious factor is determining the value of a diamond, but two diamonds of equal sizes can have different qualities, affecting their relative market value. Diamonds of a high quality can be found in all size ranges.
COLOR
Although most diamonds look colorless, others can contain slight tinges of yellow or brown, some of which are called ‘champagne’ diamonds.
There is an alphabetical grading system (shown below) that is used to measure diamond color.
The diamonds we carefully select always fall between a G and I grading, a near colorless range we think is the ideal marriage between diamond quality and overall value.
CLARITY
As you may know, 99% of diamonds have naturally occurring inclusions that help categorize them. When you buy a diamond from GoldAlwaysFree you will be given the option of choosing a clarity.
Below is a list of various types of diamond clarity:
VS Quality Diamonds usually found in Upscale or Club Stores Very small inclusions, not visible to the naked eye. Investment qualtiy jewelry!
SI Quality Diamonds usually found in Guild Stores Very small inclusions, not visible to the untrained eye. We doubt you will ever notice the naturally occuring inclusions.
I1-I2 Quality Diamonds usually found in Jewelry Chain Stores Small inclusions visible from 1-2 inches away.
I2-I3 Quality Diamonds usually found in Department Stores Small inclusions visible from 2-3 inches away.
