CLARITY: VVS1

The third highest clarity grade, VVS1 ensures a diamond that appears flawless, but has some infinitesimal inclusions or internal flaws. These inclusions can only be detected by an expert gemologist under 10x magnification and even then are difficult to distinguish. When inspected professionally from the top of the diamond usually no inclusions are detectable, but can be identified from the bottom of the diamond. To the naked eye, this diamond will appear flawless and its grade only affects its price, but not its appearance. VVS1 is an excellent clarity grade choice, offering both superb quality and value.
