TYPES OF DIAMOND FLAWS IN DIAMONDS 4C’S & NEW C’S

Diamonds often own unique markings – either internal (inclusions) or external (blemishes). A diamond’s clarity grade depends on the absence or presence of such inclusions.

The following lists some common terms used for diamonds’ internal and external characteristics.

External Flaws Internal Flaws
  • Natural – unpolished surface,
    the original ‘skin’ of rough diamond
  • Cleavage or feather – inclusion along the atomic grain
  • Pit – small indentation on a flat surface
  • Fracture – irregularly shaped break
  • Cavity – opening on the surface
  • Included – inclusions within a diamond
  • Nick – minor surface chip
  • Carbon spot – included crystal
  • Grain/twinning line – irregularity in crystal growth
  • Pinpoint – small included crystal (appears white)
  • Scratch – small groove (can be due to normal wear)
  • Cloud – a group of pinpoints
  • Chip – broken along the external edge
  • Internal grain line – the visible part of the internal grain structure
  • Laser drill hole – clarity enhancements to
    remove/reduce the appearance of inclusions
  • Bearded or feathered girdle – minute to small
    hairline fracture extending from girdle into stone

The clarity grade of a diamond not only affects its value and price. It can also be a good sign of the diamond’s vulnerability. Heavily included diamonds that can be prone to breakage.

Diamond Grade Chart

The AGS Diamond Grading scale is easy to understand while they rank from 0-10 on the grading scale. Here the highest grade is 0 and the lowest grade is 10.

    The clearer the diamond that looks, the better and more expensive it will be. But such diamonds are rarely found. The diamond with the best clarity is given an internally flawless (IF) grade. We must check the grade before we buy it.

    I love the chart of that 4c. It is colorless, almost yellowish, and pale yellow in color. A good diamond is considered to be the one whose color is pale. In this sense, the best diamond is the one that is completely colorless.

  3. Ashish sukhidya

    The colorless diamond is the ideal choice. It’s a perfect fit with everything and the carat weight refers to the size of the diamond. This guide is really helpful for buyers.

    Delicately scouring a piece of sandpaper on a genuine diamond will have no evil consequences for it. We must be careful while purchasing diamonds and we should purchase from a trusted dealer only.
