Achieving a ”Double Excellent” rating on a specialized fancy step-cut is incredibly rare . The crisp architectural symmetry ensures maximum light reflection, accentuating the hypnotic ”hall of mirrors” faceting.Because step-cuts feature open, transparent tables, inclusions have nowhere to hide. This stone is graded a pristine VVS1 clarity, making it entirely flawless to the naked eye and under standard magnification. The microscopic clarity characteristics consist of a minor pinpoint, feather, and natural—all completely invisible without an advanced lab microscope.The diamond sits at a J color grade (top of the near-colorless tier). Notably, the Faint Fluorescence registered on the GIA report works to the buyer's distinct advantage; when exposed to the UV wavelengths in natural daylight, it subtly counteracts the warm near-colorless undertones, causing the diamond to face up visually brighter and whiter than its technical color profile. With a shallow 58% depth, this stone maximizes its footprint, presenting excellent face-up spread for its carat weight. This item ships loose in its secure protective gem case with all corresponding GIA identification specifications. Double-check your listing invoice details upon receipt to confirm physical label matches. The GIA report number is inscribed on the girdle of the diamond.
