Cut: Rare Carat Ideal

8/8

You’ve selected a 5.26 carat round lab diamond. 0% of our users choose round diamonds. Learn more about them here.

Cut is the most important factor. When an experienced gemologist picks up a diamond grading report, their eyes go to very specific values. They are looking to see if these fall within the desired ranges. Seemingly unimportant values like the depth percentage have a large effect on how your diamond will sparkle - and these values differ for each shape.

Follow the checklist prepared by our gemologists to see how your diamond fares. If it misses by a little bit on one or two, that’s fine, but we recommend trying to find a stone that passes on all:

Good

Very Good

Excellent

Girdle Thickness	Thin to Thick	Med.

Color: F

3/3

Your 5.26 carat round lab diamond is graded F color (Colorless), and you can read more about F color diamonds here.

Color is graded beginning with D (Colorless). Learn more about diamond color here. The market prices colorless diamonds higher as they are rarer, but some people prefer warmer colored stones.

Our gemologists check for following color issues before recommending a diamond:

(K-Z)

(G-J)

(D-F)

Property	Target	Diamond
Color	K-D	F
Artificial Treatment	No	No
Fluorescence Color	None or Blue	None
Fluorescence Strength	Faint or less	None

Clarity: VS1

7/7

Your 5.26 carat round lab diamond is graded VS1 clarity, which stands for Very Slightly Included 1. Read more about VS1 clarity diamonds here, or learn more about diamond clarity in general here.

There are minimum clarities our gemologists prefer for each shape, but beyond that clarity is a matter of budget and preference. People typically aim for an eye clean stone. Also, our gemologists have certain deal-breakers when it comes to clarity. For example, our gemologists always avoid stones with a cavity, because with one wrong hit your diamond can crack.

Use the checklist below to ensure your diamond passes. Consult us before purchasing to see if any other nuanced issues are present:

Diamond Size: 5.26 Carat

A diamond's carat weight is determined by its size, with larger diamonds weighing more. Learn more about carat here.

However, it's important to note that carat weight is not the same as size, as other factors such as depth and shape can also impact how large a diamond appears.

Cannot say enough about Mia and her patience with me. I ordered a custom ring though her, had to switch the design after production began and she was still able to meet the deadline. The ring came out perfect and even better than i expected it to. Mia was very responsive and transparent with what she can offer and do for me. I will definitely be shopping here again!

I did a lot did a lot of research on lab grown diamonds. Rare Carat, and the company that puts the ring together and inspects it. I am very happy with the experience and the product. The service was great and I was able to track the progress easily. The ring is absolutely beautiful. The only negative is that the diamond was a little loose in the setting. We took it to a local jeweler who fixed it in a matter of minutes.

Great experience. I was able to research and pick from a ton of different diamonds; size, shape, cut, color, everything. Was able to narrow it down till I picked the one that I thought she would love. Then, had no idea how many different ring settings I would have to choose from. Started not knowing what I exactly was looking for and ended with exactly what I was looking for. Made for a great 25th Anniversary.
