Clarity

Most diamonds contain tiny; natural birthmarks called "inclusions". However the fewer and smaller the inclusions, the less likely they will interfere with the passage of light through the stone. Diamonds, more than any other gemstone, have the capability to produce the maximum amount of brilliance, which makes a diamond of a carat or more, the worlds most fiery gem.

FL, IF Diamonds: Flawless: No internal or external flaws. Internally Flawless: No internal flaws. Very rare and beautiful diamonds

VVS1, VVS2 Diamonds: Very, Very Slightly Included: Very difficult to see inclusions under 10x magnification. An excellent quality diamond.

VS1, VS2 Diamonds: Very Slightly Included: Inclusions are not  visible to the unaided eye. Considered a better value than the VVS1 and VVS2 grades.

SI1, SI2 Diamonds: Slightly Included: Inclusions are visible under 10x magnification, should be clean to the naked eye, however some SI2 inclusions may be visible to the unaided eye. Considered by us to be the best value.

I1, I2, I3 Diamonds: Included. Typically used in pendant and earrings and in some cases side included I1 diamonds can be used in rings. The most reasonably priced clarity.
