When assessing a diamond's quality, "Clarity" refers to the absence of internal characteristics (inclusions) and surface defects (blemishes). Understanding this grading scale can save you money while ensuring you receive a visually stunning gemstone.
The Clarity Scale Explained
The Gemological Institute of America (GIA) grades clarity from Flawless (FL) down to Included (I1, I2, I3). For most buyers, the sweet spot lies in the VS (Very Slightly Included) and SI (Slightly Included) ranges.

An "eye-clean" diamond is one where inclusions are completely invisible to the naked eye, even if they are detectable under 10x magnification. By purchasing an eye-clean VS2 or SI1 diamond, you can allocate more of your budget toward a larger carat weight or a better cut.
