What is a GIA Certified Diamond?

A GIA Certified Diamond is a diamond that has been graded by an independent third party laboratory. This means that the diamond's characteristics have been measured and recorded. These measurements are then compared with those of other diamonds of similar size and color. If the measurements match up, the diamond is given a grade based on its clarity, cut, color, and carat weight. A GIA Certified Diamond is a diamond that meets the following criteria:

• It must be at least 0.50 carats (1/2 gram) in size.
• Its color grade must be D or E.
• It must have an SI clarity rating of VS1 or higher.
• It must pass the Gemological Institute of America's rigorous inspection process.
