When you buy a diamond necklace, you need to focus on the quality of the stone. Keep In mind, there are four categories to be considered while rating the quality of a diamond. They are – carat, cut, clarity, and color.

Carat – Consider the weight of diamond in carat for the purpose of comparison. Remember, 200 milligram equals to 1 carat. A necklace of having higher carat weight is more valuable. Go for the diamond’s size, as it is appropriate to its setting. a larger diamond carries valuable impact as pendant earrings than as a pendant necklace.

Cut –You should evaluate the quality of the diamond cut. Diamonds are given certain grades to ensure its value. Below are the grades –

• Ideal cut – diamonds of ideal cut possess smaller table sizes and evaluate the stone’s brilliance. Remember that only round diamond can have an ideal cut.

• Premium cut – it is considered to enhance the diamond’s brilliance in terms of expense of size.

• Very Good – If you choose diamonds with “very good” grades, it is the reflection of the majority of lights that it possesses.

Apart from the above grades, Good and Fair & Poor grade are also given to diamonds. These are the best ways to compare diamonds. Cuts of this grade are designed to maximize the diamond’s size and carat.

Clarity –Blemishes and inclusions are two major factors to examine the diamonds’ clarity. Blemished is for Surface flaws (chips, pits, and scratches) whereas Inclusions refer to internal flaws (cracks and air bubbles etc). There are industry standard to rate the diamond’s clarity such as

• Flawless (F) – No internal or external flaws.

Choose the colorless diamonds, as they are considered to be more valuable and desirable. A 23-point graded scale is the industry standard to be followed to that help rate the diamonds from “D” to “Z.”

• D, E, and F rates are colorless diamonds

• G, H, and I are nearly colorless diamonds
