Understand the 4 Cs

You need to understand the four 4Cs while shopping for diamonds. They are- carat, color, clarity, and cut. The other determining factors will help you find your perfect lab-grown diamond jewelry for yourself.

Carat

Carat is the carat weight of the diamond stone and measures the accurate size based on its weight. If you’re a first-time buyer, then you will pay more attention to carat weight as people generally want a big diamond for themselves; however, if you are on a tight budget, then you can opt for a diamond stone under 1.0 CT where the weight will be negligible however there will be a significant difference in the price. So, you can save some dollars. 

Cut

The next important aspect is the cut, which greatly influences the price and appearance of the lab-grown diamond. The cut of a diamond determines how it will interact with light and create effects such as fire, scintillation, and brightness. New world diamonds use a standardized scale for pricing their lab-grown diamonds. Therefore, you should always buy diamonds having good cut grades.

 Clarity

The quality or purity of a diamond is determined by its clarity which states how many blemishes or inclusions the diamond has and whether it is flawless. You need to buy a better clarity diamond as it will offer greater brilliance; however, it will come with a high price tag.

Color

A diamond stone's whiteness or lack of color is influenced by color. A diamond's color grade ranges from the letters D, E, and F, which stand for colorless diamonds. Letter G, H, I, and J stands for nearly colorless diamonds, whereas letter K, L, and M stand for faint color diamonds. N to R color grade stands for very light-colored diamonds, and the letter S to Z stands for light-colored diamonds. If you’re looking for a pure diamond, then you should choose the diamond grade of D to F. if you are on a tight budget, then you can choose the color grade of G to J, which will be a little cheaper.

Check the grading reports

You need to check the grading reports of the lab-grown diamond you plan to buy. The grading reports can be from either GCal or IGI. These two institutes also grade naturally mined diamonds. Diamonds are graded based on 4Cs: color, clarity, cut, and carat. You can know the quality of your lab-grown diamond by seeing the report.

Make custom design ring

If opting for a custom design is not within your budgetary limits, you can request a custom modification to have the engagement ring of your dream. Engraving is a way you can add a special touch to your perfect lab-created diamond wedding ring.
