FAQs

Faint fluorescence indicates a very slight UV glow with no practical impact. In a 2 carat criss cross, faint fluorescence is completely undetectable through the intersecting facet pattern. The woven light display performs identically whether the stone has faint fluorescence or none.
Completely safe. Faint fluorescence is too minimal to affect any diamond, including the criss cross's complex woven faceting. At 2 carats, the intersecting light pattern shows no difference between faint and no fluorescence. It's a non-factor in purchase decisions.
Any savings from faint fluorescence are minor but welcome. Since faint has zero visual impact on the criss cross's woven light pattern, any price advantage is pure value. At 2 carats, even small per-carat savings add up meaningfully.
When looking for 2 carat natural diamonds, look between 1.9 to 2.2 carats so that you give yourself the best selection which will help find the best value. Searching within this range across different faint fluorescence options gives you the widest selection to compare cut quality, proportions, and overall value. A well-chosen 2 carat faint criss cross natural diamond at the lower end of this range can look identical to one at the exact 2 carat mark while costing less.
