Diamond Information
Certification: GIA
This diamond comes accompanied by a diamond certificate grading report from the GIA.
Cut: Excellent

Color: F
This diamond is considered colorless, with just a slight difference from a D or E color apparent only with direct comparison when the diamonds are unmounted. This diamond will appear beautifully colorless in the setting at a lower price than a D or E color, depending on other quality factors.
Clarity: VS2
This diamond has a clarity grade of very slightly included to the second degree. Diamonds with this clarity grade have small inclusions such as pinpoints, included crystals, and feathers that are visible with some difficulty under 10 power magnification. With a clarity grade of VS2, there is no possibility of seeing any inclusion with the unaided eye. Diamonds with this grade offer a beautiful clarity at a great value compared with VVS or IF diamonds and will be a slightly lower price than a diamond with VS1 clarity.

need crown/pavilion info.

Can you post the GIA cert number or amazon link?


ETA: I will assume you've done some reading and looking in person and know that you could drop colour and clarity for size, and have decided not to go that route, and save the saga

Found it on Amazon... and they don''t let you see the GIA cert.

I wouldn''t do it, though you could buy it, check it out, and return it if you''re set on Amazon. Otherwise check out some of the featured PS vendors under Tools in the top menu bar.

its like buying a house and not allowing you in to view the home
or buying a car and not getting the service reports
