Pick a Lab Diamond

FAQs

VVS1 is an excellent clarity for an oval cut lab grown diamond, delivering near-flawless quality that is always eye-clean. The oval's brilliant faceting would conceal inclusions at much lower grades, so VVS1 provides a generous margin of clarity perfection. It costs less than IF and Flawless while delivering visually identical results on the finger, making it the best value in the premium clarity tier.
No, VVS1 clarity does not affect an oval lab grown diamond's sparkle. Sparkle in an oval is determined by its cut proportions, symmetry, and the severity of the bowtie effect, not by clarity grade. A well-cut oval with VS2 clarity will outsparkle a poorly proportioned oval with VVS1. Always evaluate an oval's light performance and bowtie separately from its clarity grade.
Yes, VVS1 offers better value than IF for an oval lab grown diamond. Both are eye-clean and visually identical on the finger. VVS1 costs 10% to 15% less, and those savings can be redirected toward a larger carat size, better cut proportions, or a more elaborate setting. In the oval shape specifically, investing in a well-cut stone with minimal bowtie matters more than the clarity upgrade from VVS1 to IF.
