Diamonds are graded by their cut, clarity, carat weight and color. Being clear of any debris or disfiguring qualities that appear inside the diamond, clarity is one of the most important aspects to consider when buying an engagement ring or set of earring. Being available in a number of cuts (or shapes) there are many different options available for individuals that are looking for an exquisite piece of jewelry to add to their collection. With the brightness or radiance of a diamond being determined by its clarity the rule of thumb when making a diamond purchase, is to find a brilliant stone but not to buy something that looks like it could be a fake. Because cubic zirconium is flawless and can look very impressive its luster can be mistaken for an actual diamond, however with a small flaw in the diamond the genuine article can always be found when looking at real gems and those that have been manufactured in a lab. As the color of a diamond will also vary from a brilliant white or clear stone to yellows and browns the color of a diamond is something that should also be considered when making a purchase. Although size and shape are relevant to the different costs associated with a diamond, it is the diamond clarity and color that influence the brightness of the stone and make it something that is desirable for a woman to want to wear. Being graded on a numeric and alphabetical scale the best diamonds are those at the beginning of the alphabet which have a low corresponding number assigned to them.
