Diamond Clarity


✨ The Significance of Diamond Clarity – A RoyceLuxeJewels Guide ✨

At RoyceLuxeJewels, we believe that every diamond tells a story—etched in time, pressure, and perfection. One of the most important factors influencing a diamond’s beauty and value is its clarity.

💎 What Is Diamond Clarity?

Clarity refers to the presence—or absence—of internal characteristics known as inclusions, and external characteristics called blemishes. These are natural markings created during a diamond’s formation deep within the earth under intense heat and pressure.

While completely flawless diamonds are extremely rare, most inclusions are so small they cannot be seen with the naked eye—and they do not diminish the diamond’s beauty.

At RoyceLuxeJewels, we celebrate the uniqueness of each stone. Not all diamonds are perfect, but every diamond is one-of-a-kind.

🔍 The 5 Clarity Categories

1. FL/IF – Flawless / Internally Flawless

  • Rarity at its finest.

  • No visible inclusions even under 10x magnification.

  • IF diamonds may have minuscule surface blemishes only detectable under a microscope.

  • Less than 1% of diamonds meet this standard—an exceptional treasure.

2. VVS1/VVS2 – Very Very Slightly Included

  • Inclusions are extremely difficult to detect under 10x magnification.

  • These diamonds offer a nearly flawless appearance.

  • Ideal for collectors or those seeking elite quality.

3. VS1/VS2 – Very Slightly Included

  • Inclusions are minor and only visible under magnification.

  • Excellent balance between beauty and value.

  • Perfect for those who want purity without the premium price tag of VVS or FL.

4. SI1/SI2 – Slightly Included

  • Inclusions are visible under 10x magnification, but generally invisible to the naked eye.

  • SI1 diamonds often appear eye-clean and offer exceptional value.

  • SI2 diamonds may show slight inclusions depending on location and cut.

5. I1/I2/I3 – Included

  • Inclusions are visible to the naked eye and may impact brilliance.

  • Despite imperfections, these diamonds can still shine—especially with expert setting and styling.

  • Best for clients seeking affordability with larger carat sizes.
