Clarity grading of colored gemstones: A Reality Check

Clarity grading of colored gemstones: A Reality Check

Gemstones are one of the most beautiful gifts of nature to mankind. Man has always felt an urge to know the unknown. There is a unique passion in trying to figure out what lies beneath to what is on the surface. God which endowed mankind with this powerful weapon of curiosity also created numerous wonders hidden in the lap of Mother Nature to be unearthed and unfolded. Gemstones were one such gift that gave many reasons to smile by bestowing lasting happiness by ushering many positive changes in life.It is the mystical powers of gemstones to interact with planets and natural beauty which creates a pull.

It is the rising popularity of these wondrous stones that the market for many counterfeit and cheap copies of the gemstones is also thriving. There have been many cases where people ended up buying poor quality gemstones at very high prices blinded by faith and a lack of knowledge. Wandering in ignorance, they could not channelize their curiosity in the right manner.

This underlines the need to know your gemstones well before buying it. Clarity of gemstones is one such primary aspect that takes center stage while addressing the quality. Clarity is highly important in gemstones especially the colored ones. It has actually been given a lot of weight as color is the first thing one notices about any gemstone.

Although a stringent scale has been formed to grade diamonds, the standard for gemstones quality is still blurred. This has bred many misconceptions as people often extend the four Cs of diamonds to colored gems as well. Clarity is significant but there is a lot of difference between the two and one can easily miss the other important cues which are essential for proper grading of the gemstones. Even the terms like VS and VVS are also being used to grade the gemstones. Professional gemologists and gemstone associations have coined the terms like “loupe clean”, “eye clean”, “very slightly included”, etc. to grade gemstones based on the fact that the inclusions in the stone can be seen with the naked eye or under a 10x magnification under the loupe. In terms of gemstone quality, the color is definitely supreme and the inclusions are often not included unless they hinder the beauty of the gemstone. It is this focus on the color that there is an apparent absence of the international grading standard for gemstones. There is, however, the presence of a grading system, which is used but cannot be considered complete in all respects for determining the quality of the gemstone as there are many other aspects that need to be considered like the color and cut in particular. The recognized types are mentioned below:

Type 1: These are completely free of inclusions and are of high quality. Any inclusions can only be seen under 10x magnification. Also called as loupe clean.

Type 2: These have inclusions but the ones of high quality are almost clean to the naked eye. Many precious gemstones like ruby, sapphire fall under Type 2 category.

Type 3: These have visible inclusions. In spite of these types, there is still ambiguity in terms of gemstone clarity grading and there are some amount of inclusions which are present. The above guide is a good point to start but gemology is a complete science and has many aspects. Seasoned gemologists can only tell the difference which even the merchants who have been dealing with these for years cannot make out. Gemkart has always brought you the best quality gemstones.

  • You can get your ex back and cure your infertility problems with Dr. Odunga

    When I met Dr. Odunga, my husband had divorced me because I was a barren woman of 41 and I have been married for 21 years. I was devastated and confused as a woman of my age until I went online to look for help on how to get my marriage back then I met Dr. Odunga. Within 48 hours of contacting him, my ex husband came back home and pleaded for me to forgive him and take him back after 5 months of divorce. I accepted him back and then I told Dr. Odunga of my bareness for him to help me. He did the spell for fertility and after 48 hours of completing it, my womb was fertile for conceiving. My husband got me pregnant and I gave birth to a baby girl. Presently, I am a mother of a beautiful baby girl and I am happy in my relationship. This is all thanks to Dr. Odunga and his wonderful work. Contact Dr. Odunga Via Whats-App number +2348167159012. Email at: odungaspelltemple@gmail.com

  • I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
