VS2 Lab Grown Diamonds

VS2 (Very Slightly Included 2) clarity means the diamond has minor inclusions that are somewhat easy to see under 10x magnification but are rarely visible to the naked eye. VS2 is widely considered the best overall value in diamond clarity because it delivers an eye-clean appearance in most shapes while costing significantly less than VVS and Flawless grades. It is the most recommended clarity grade by independent diamond professionals.

VS2 lab diamonds are eye-clean in the vast majority of brilliant-cut shapes, including round, oval, cushion, princess, pear, radiant, heart, and marquise. These shapes break up light in ways that mask small inclusions effectively. For step-cut shapes like emerald and asscher, VS2 is eye-clean in most cases but should be evaluated individually, as the large open facets can occasionally reveal inclusions in certain positions.

VS2 is considered the sweet spot because it offers the lowest price point at which a diamond consistently appears flawless to the naked eye. The savings compared to VVS or Flawless grades can be 20% to 40%, and that budget can be redirected toward a larger carat weight, better cut quality, or a more elaborate setting. Since no one can see VS2 inclusions without magnification in a brilliant cut, you get identical on-finger beauty at a better price.

VS2 is the best value for brilliant-cut shapes because the faceting masks minor inclusions, and Do Amore's certified VS2 stones are eye-clean in the vast majority of cases. Each purchase provides clean water access to one person in need.
