1.01 Carat Marquise Cut Diamond, CRY-J, SI-2, GIA Certified

This is a natural marquise cut diamond of 1.01 carat, colour Crystal J, clarity SI-2, with a GIA certificate. It comes from Royal Coster Diamonds in Amsterdam, the oldest still operating diamond polishing house in the world, founded in 1840.

The cut. The marquise is an elongated shape with a point at both ends. Because the weight is spread over a long surface, a marquise looks larger than most other shapes of the same carat weight. On the hand the length makes the finger appear slimmer.

Colour. Crystal J is near colourless, at the lower end of that range. The stone has a slight warmth that can be visible in a white setting. In yellow or rose gold that warmth blends in with the metal.

Clarity. SI-2 stands for Slightly Included. The inclusions are visible under 10x magnification. Our diamond specialists can tell you where they are located in this stone.

Certificate. The diamond was graded by GIA, an independent laboratory. The certificate confirms that the diamond is natural and records its weight, colour, clarity and cut.

Setting. We can set this diamond in a ring, earrings or a pendant in 18K white, yellow or rose gold. Our diamond specialists advise you in our boutique in Amsterdam or online.
