H&A Clarity Graded Diamonds

Most diamonds have internal characteristics called inclusions. Some inclusions are more obvious than others. Inclusions will be less visible in a smaller diamond (like earrings) than in a larger diamond (like
an engagement ring).

You’ll want to consider where the diamond is going to be placed before you decide which level of inclusion is appropriate for your purchase.
