Clarity - Diamonds

Diamond Clarity

In purchasing or selling a diamond, one has to know what properties are attributed to the diamond that makes it either costly or less expensive.

A diamond's clarity depends on the number and size of its flaws and inclusions (of other minerals, like quartz). Clarity is rated from FI (flawless), IF (flawless at 10x magnification), a series of V ratings (very small flaws at 10x magnification), a series of S ratings (small flaws at 10x magnification), to I1, I2, and I3 (having inclusions visible to the naked eye).

Diamonds have unique properties which are unmatched by any other substance on the planet. Due to this, diamonds have been used for a variety of purposes.

During the ancient times, jewelry played an important role in maintaining a status quo. For purposes of personal adornment, people wore ornaments made of precious metals (silver, gold, platinum, titanium) occasionally set with precious & semiprecious gems.

Diffusion treated diamond diamonds are color-enhanced (not naturally colored) diamonds. The diffusion process only colors the outer surface of the stone, so chipping or re-polishing will result in a loss of color. Diffusion-treated diamonds are already-cut diamonds that are heated in the presence of other compounds (like iron oxide, chromium oxide, titanium dioxide, etc.) that will infuse the extreme outer surface stone with color. Under a microscope, you you can see the loss of color within each tiny scratch.
