0.42ct J SI1 Marquise Natural Diamond

About this 0.42ct natural marquise diamond

This 0.42ct natural marquise sits in the sub-half-carat band, graded J colour (near-colourless) and SI1 clarity (slightly-included), with a very-good cut grade stated by the retailer rather than the lab and certified by GIA 2567008911. Listed at 18 retailers as of November 1, 2026, with a 237% spread between the cheapest and most expensive listing. That is exactly the kind of price-discovery gap Carat Hunter was built to surface. 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.
