Carat is a measure of weight, while the millimetre dimensions tell you more about how large the diamond faces up and how the setting must be engineered. This stone measures 11.49 × 7.61 × 4.72 mm, so those actual dimensions can guide claw position, halo spacing, bezel size and setting clearances. At one carat or above, it can be treated as a prominent centre stone for a solitaire, halo, cathedral, three-stone or statement pendant design.

For a fancy-colour diamond, colour character and intensity are central to the face-up look. The setting can be used to harmonise with the colour or create deliberate contrast with white diamonds and different precious-metal tones. The recorded overtone is Yellow, which can also influence how the finished jewellery is styled. The actual image/video and grading report should be reviewed before making claims about the stone’s precise face-up colour.

VS1 sits in the Very Slightly Included clarity range. Many diamonds at this level can look very clean without magnification, but “eye-clean” is a stone-specific visual judgement, not something we automatically guarantee from the certificate alone. Ask our Graduate Gemologist (GIA) if you would like an opinion on whether this exact diamond appears eye-clean in normal viewing.

For an Oval diamond, appearance should not be reduced to a Round Brilliant cut scale. Outline, facet pattern, contrast, length-to-width ratio, polish, symmetry and image/video assessment are important parts of the selection. Recorded finish: Polish EX · Symmetry EX.
