1.01 Carat Princess Cut Diamond, CRY-J, VVS-1, GIA Certified

This is a natural princess cut diamond of 1.01 carat, colour Crystal J, clarity VVS-1, 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 princess cut is square with sharp corners and a brilliant style facet pattern. It combines the clean outline of a square with the light return of a brilliant. The pointed corners are best protected by a setting with a prong on each corner.

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. VVS-1 stands for Very Very Slightly Included. The inclusions are so small that even a trained grader has difficulty finding them under 10x magnification.

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.

The specifications and the certificate are leading: they describe this exact stone. Our diamond specialists will gladly send you photos or a video of the diamond, or show it to you in our boutique in Amsterdam.
