This 1.52-carat Oval is a very high-quality stone for a client who prioritizes purity and size while staying within a smart budget. In an Oval cut, VVS1 clarity is exceptionally rare and ensures the diamond is completely "clean" even under a microscope. The Diamond Profile Carat: 1.52 cts (Great "face-up" size) Color: I (Near Colorless – faces up white, especially in sunlight) Clarity: VVS1 (Investment grade purity) Cert: IGI Setting Suggestion The "Modern Classic" Setting Metal: 14K or 18K White Gold or Platinum. Style: A 4-prong solitaire with a hidden halo of small diamonds underneath. Why: Since "I" color is near-colorless, setting it in white metal with a hidden halo provides extra "ice" and brilliance, making the center stone look like a G or H color to the naked eye. When pitching an I-VVS1, focus on the "Crystal Purity." Many Ovals have visible inclusions (black spots) in the center, but this stone is virtually perfect. Important Information for Buyers: 1.
