Pick a Lab Diamond

FAQs

VS1 is an excellent clarity for a 1 carat cushion lab grown diamond, providing guaranteed eye-clean quality across all faceting styles. For chunky cushions with transparent facets, VS1 is the most-recommended minimum clarity. For crushed-ice cushions, VS1 goes slightly beyond what is needed but offers complete peace of mind. VS1 is the universal safe choice for all 1 carat cushion buyers.
The choice depends on faceting style. For crushed-ice 1 carat cushions, VS2 is eye-clean and the better value. For chunky 1 carat cushions with large transparent facets, VS1 provides extra assurance since the open facets can occasionally reveal VS2 inclusions. If you are unsure of faceting style or want a universally safe grade, VS1 covers every scenario at 1 carat.
G or H color pairs well with VS1 at 1 carat in a cushion lab grown diamond. Both colors face up white in the cushion's faceting and create a stone that looks colorless and flawless. This combination balances quality and value efficiently, leaving budget for selecting a cushion with ideal proportions and the faceting style you prefer.
