Natural diamonds are formed deep within the Earth over billions of years under extreme heat and pressure. Their rarity and unique formation process contribute to their value. Natural diamonds are graded by the same standards as lab-grown diamonds, ensuring consistent quality assessment.

Cut is arguably the most important of the Four C's because it directly impacts how a diamond interacts with light. The GIA assesses cut quality based on brightness (total reflection of white light), fire (dispersion into colors), and scintillation (sparkle pattern). Always aim for a Good, Very Good, or Excellent/Ideal cut grade for maximum sparkle.
When jewelers talk about Color, they are actually measuring the absence of color. The ideal diamond is completely colorless. The GIA grades diamond color on a D-to-Z scale, where D is completely colorless (rarest and most valuable) and Z has a noticeable yellow or brown tint. D–F are Colorless (highest quality), while G–J are Near-Colorless (excellent value).
Clarity measures the presence (or absence) of natural birthmarks—both internal inclusions and external blemishes—that occurred during the diamond's formation. The GIA clarity scale ranges from Flawless (FL) to Included (I3). The sweet spot for consumers is often an Eye-Clean diamond, typically found in the VS1 to SI1 range, providing a great balance of beauty and cost.
