Understanding Diamond Clarity at Adrisya

At Adrisya, we believe every diamond tells its own story—and its clarity is a big part of that narrative. Clarity refers to the natural characteristics found within or on the surface of a diamond. These may be internal features known as inclusions, or external ones referred to as blemishes.

We offer diamonds graded from VVS1 to I1, ensuring there's a brilliant option for every preference and price point. Diamonds rated VS2 or higher are often considered “eye-clean,” meaning any imperfections are invisible without magnification.

A Look at the Clarity Scale

Clarity grades are based on the visibility, number, size, and placement of inclusions and blemishes. Here's what each grade means:

• VVS1 – Very, Very Slightly Included
  Exceptional clarity. Imperfections are extremely hard to spot even with 10x magnification.

• VVS2 – Very, Very Slightly Included
  Still of outstanding clarity. Tiny inclusions may be visible under magnification but remain very difficult to detect.

• VS1 – Very Slightly Included
  Slight internal features visible only under magnification. Offers a clean appearance and excellent value.

• VS2 – Very Slightly Included
  Minor inclusions detectable under 10x magnification, yet still not visible to the unaided eye.

• SI1 – Slightly Included
  Inclusions may be noticeable under magnification, but typically not seen without it. Offers a great balance between quality and affordability.

• SI2 – Slightly Included
  Inclusions are more noticeable and may be visible without magnification. Still a good choice for those who don’t mind character in their gem.

• I1 – Included
  Internal features are visible to the naked eye. These diamonds offer individuality and are ideal for buyers focusing on budget over perfection.

Selecting the Right Clarity for You

Choosing a clarity grade depends on your priorities—whether that’s flawless sparkle or a stone that tells a more organic story.

For those who prefer a diamond without visible marks:

• Opt for VS2 or better for diamonds up to 1.00 carat

• Choose VS1 or higher for diamonds over 1.00 carat

Diamond shapes also influence how visible inclusions appear. Styles like Emerald and Asscher, with open facets, tend to reveal internal features more readily. For these cuts, we recommend staying at VS1 or above.

Clarity That Reflects Your Story

Every diamond has its own character — a fingerprint formed by nature. At Adrisya, we believe clarity is not just about perfection, but about embracing what makes each gem unique. Whether you choose a flawless stone or one with subtle inclusions, your diamond should speak to you.

Let clarity guide you, but let your heart decide. After all, the most brilliant stories are rarely without depth.
