Maybe you noticed that diamond on Blue Nile has no real image! While this diamond is guaranteed to be eye-clean and colorless (obviously), that’s why we always encourage to make sure you buy filter diamonds that have images as we explained in our Blue Nile review. The outcome of doing this search on James Allen’s was only 2 diamonds priced around $20.7k (yes, you read it right, $20k for a 1-carat diamond!).Ĭarrying out a similar search on Blue Nile resulted in only one diamond and it’s priced at $22.4k ! We will be fixing all these factors to get the price range: Our references for price estimations will be James Allen, as well as Blue Nile, their head-to-head competitor with half a million diamonds. We took the liberty to perform a simple search in order to have a fair estimation for this gem. Now, What is 1 Carat D Flawless Diamond Price? The flawless clarity grade is similar to D in color, it’s very rare and stands on TOP of the clarity grades scale! And when you know that SI1 & VS2 are best eye clean grades, we believe it’s will be much clearer why Flawless diamonds are so expensive, and to be honest, not recommended at all!įL stands on the scale five grades higher than the recommended grade to get an eye-clean diamond. Here is the clarity grades scale for diamonds: James Allen, the biggest online store for diamonds as we saw in their review having a wide collection of more than 543k diamonds, has less than 250 flawless diamonds (diamonds without any inclusions) as you can see here. It’s safe to say that more than 99% of diamonds can’t make it to “Flawless”! This brings the question, what percentage of diamonds has almost ZERO inclusions? These imperfections are called “ diamond inclusions ”.ĭiamonds with no inclusions are extremely rare that even most jewelers go throughout their whole lives not seeing one! In short, under these circumstances, a diamond with some flaws will definitely be made!

Flawless Clarity Grade – Where it Stands?ĭiamonds are created under tremendous amounts of pressure and heat. ![]() Having that said, it’s obvious that the D color is waaaay too high from the recommendation you will hear from any expert, you’re talking about 3 grades higher from a color that is guaranteed 100% to appear completely colorless. In short, these two grades will not show any yellow color to the naked eye, but if you want more details, we encourage you to go over H vs. Generally, and in order not to spend money on something you can’t see, we recommend our readers to get a G color (sometimes even an H grade). Well, D grade is really fascinating and all, but we don’t recommend it AT ALL. Pro Tip: Even gemologists can NEVER tell the difference between D & E grades by just looking at one of them alone, they have to hold them side by side to tell a difference without any guessing! So don’t ever expect someone to tell what color is your diamond by just looking. It is also one of the most valuable (in terms of being expensive only!) grades you can ever find. We believe it’s obvious that since D is the first grade in the scale, it’s known that the D Colorless diamonds are considered one of the rarest diamonds ever, it’s utterly colorless (along with E grade). Here is the grades scale grouped by the percentage of color in each group for your reference: On Diamonds Color scale, and according to GIA standards, diamonds are graded from D (being the most colorless) to Z (note all color grades after K start to show some yellow). To put this in perspective, let’s take a quick look at where these grades fall… D Color Grade – Where it Stands?
