| | Clarity & Diamonds - The 4 C's |
 | | Extremes of clarity can produce a brilliant magnificent diamond, or a dead, dull, and lifeless stone. | | | Clarity literally means "clearness" rather than lack of inclusions, and refers to the diamond's ability to allow the free passage of light without obstruction or absorption. | | | Clarity is possibly the most important of the factors affecting the quality and price of any diamond. |

| | Diamond - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Diamonds are valued according to the four C's of diamond grading, namely cut, clarity, color, and carat. | | | Some diamonds, particularly Canadian diamonds, show no fluorescence. | | | Cuts are influenced heavily by fashion; baguettes—which accentuate a diamond's lustre and downplay its fire—were all the rage during the Art Deco period, whereas the princess cut—which accentuates a diamond's fire rather than its lustre—is currently gaining popularity. |

| | The clarity grade is determined by a skilled diamond grader based upon the number, size, nature and location of the internal (inclusions) and external (blemishes) imperfections. | | | The clarity grade of a diamond is not fixed and can change due circumstances such as scratches or chips caused by daily wear. | | | Clarity grading consists of more than just visual identification of a diamond's inclusions and inclusion pattern. |

| | Diamond clarity |
| | Clarity is a measure of the number and extent of the flaws in the diamond. | | | One pitfall to avoid when shopping for clarity is the "clarity-enhanced" diamond. | | | Unfortunately, clarity is very difficult to judge accurately by an inexperienced consumer, so your best bet is to gain an education first by looking at lots of diamonds before making a purchase. |
