About this 1.26ct natural round diamond

This 1.26ct natural round sits in the one-and-a-quarter to one-and-a-half carat band, graded J colour (near-colourless) and SI2 clarity (slightly-included), with a top-tier cut grade and certified by GIA 2557492173. Listed at 9 retailers as of November 1, 2026, with a 82% spread between the cheapest and most expensive listing. That is exactly the kind of price-discovery gap Carat Hunter was built to surface.
