CLARITY SCALE FOR COLORED GEMSTONES

VVS

Excellent Quality gems that may have microscopic inclusions which are difficult to slightly difficult to see under a loupe with 10x magnification.

VS

Very Good Quality gems with inclusions that are visible only under a jewelers loupe of 10x magnification. The inclusions are NOT clearly obvious to the naked eye. Or the inclusions are visible to the naked eye after very careful observation or in some cases from a certain angle only. In most cases the inclusions in gems of this grade can be hidden after setting the gem into jewelry.

Si

These gems have inclusions which are fairly easy to see by the naked eye. However, the overall beauty of the gem is still good as the inclusions are not visible from a distance, say an arms length.

I1

The inclusions are prominent to the naked eye and affect the internal luster and beauty of the gem.

Translucent

These gems allow light to pass through with dispersion. This clarity trait may not necessarily indicate an inferior quality gem. Gems such as Chalcedony are Naturally Translucent.

Opaque

These gems do not allow light to pass through them. This clarity trait may not necessarily indicate an inferior quality gem. Gems such as Turquoise are Naturally Opaque.

Note: FOR DIAMONDS Usual GIA Clarity Scale is followed.
