0.96ct H VS1 Marquise Natural Diamond

About this 0.96ct natural marquise diamond

This 0.96ct natural marquise sits in the just-under-one-carat band, graded H colour (near-colourless) and VS1 clarity (very-slightly-included), with a standard cut grade stated by the retailer rather than the lab and certified by GIA 2557349951. Listed at 12 retailers, with prices from $2,062 to $4,505 at Cape Diamonds, a $2,443 spread on the same certified stone. Cut grade matters more than carat or clarity for visible brilliance. If you can shift budget toward an Excellent or Ideal cut, do it before chasing higher colour or clarity.
