(Mostly Bad) We&#8217;ll Start with the Bad and Work our way up the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/diamond-clarity\/\">Diamond Clarity Grading Chart<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><h2>Grading Chart<\/h2>\n<p>\nIf you look at the Grading Chart, you&#8217;ll see that <strong>I3 Clarity is at the very end of the Clarity Scale<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>I3&#8217;s are the Last Stop on the List<\/strong>. And no, just because it&#8217;s at the end of the list, that doesn&#8217;t mean it&#8217;s the Good end! <\/p>\n<p><h2>Quite the Opposite!<\/h2>\n<p>\nI3 Clarity resides at the Very Bottom of the Diamond Quality List. <strong>They are the Lowest Grade Available<\/strong>. The Bottom Rung. <strong>The Worst Possible Diamond Clarity Grading you can get<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nAnd Quite Possibly <strong>the Worst looking Diamond on the Face of the Earth!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n(You never know! It could be!)<\/p>\n<p><h2>Industrial Diamonds<\/h2>\n<p>\nThe only Diamonds in the World that are Worse than an I3 Clarity Diamond are what they call &#8220;<strong>Industrial Diamonds<\/strong>&#8220;. <\/p>\n<p>\nIndustrial Diamonds don&#8217;t even Hit the Market, they&#8217;re used in Fun Things like Dentist&#8217;s Drills and Saw Blades. Check it out the next time your Dentist says <strong>&#8220;Open Wide!&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nSo with I3 Clarity Diamonds being at the Bottom of the Bucket, <strong>are they really that Awful?<\/strong> <strong>Am I Exaggerating?<\/strong> What do they really look like? Are they really Bad?<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Answer: <strong>Nope!<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p><h2>Oh Wait, my Eyes were Closed!<\/h2>\n<p>\nYes! Yes they Really are that Bad! (See Picture!) <\/p>\n<p>\nI3 Diamonds are Scary. Some even look like Chunks of Salt. <strong>No Lie!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nI3 Diamonds are normally Full of Massive Inclusions, Giant Flaws, Jagged Lines, Dark Feathers, Black Spots, Carbon, Cracks, Pin Points, Chips, Fractures, you name it&#8230; <strong>it&#8217;s in there!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nIf you looked at an I3 Clarity Diamond under a <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B005MZ7BQY\/?tag=jewelry-secrets-20\">10x Microscope<\/a> you&#8217;d probably <strong>GASP<\/strong>. Not that you need to use a Scope to see the Eye-Visible Inclusions, but you really should. It&#8217;s an Eye-Opener! You want to take a closer look, <strong>it&#8217;ll Knock your Socks off!<\/strong> There&#8217;s a lot of <strong>GOOK <\/strong>going on in there!<\/p>\n<p><h2>So What Good are I3 Clarity Diamonds?<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>Are they even Worth Buying?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nMaybe&#8230; <strong>Not all Hope is Lost<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>\nYou can get Lucky and run across an I3 Diamond that&#8217;s <strong>Half Way Decent<\/strong>. It&#8217;s Rare, but not Impossible.<\/p>\n<p>\nI&#8217;ve seen a couple here and there. I mean, <strong>it is on the Bottom of the Clarity List for a Reason<\/strong>. Every now and then you can find an I3 Diamond that doesn&#8217;t Face up too Bad.<\/p>\n<p>But then again, I&#8217;ve seen some that are so Included that the Entire Diamond looks Milky White. (Some people don&#8217;t mind this!) As long as you know that it&#8217;s the Flaws that&#8217;s causing it to look White and <strong>NOT<\/strong> the actual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/diamond-color\/\">Color of the Diamond<\/a>. Don&#8217;t Confuse these 2 things! You may get a White Appearing Diamond, but it certainly won&#8217;t have any Life or Beauty.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So What do I3 Clarity Diamonds Lack?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n<strong> I3 Diamonds Lack Brilliance and Luster and Shine and Fire<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nSome people don&#8217;t Care. (If they Scoped it they would!) <\/p>\n<p>\nYou will probably notice a Big Difference when she Compares it to her Girlfriend&#8217;s Ring though.<strong> It&#8217;ll be a Day and Night Difference<\/strong>. (I wouldn&#8217;t Advise this!)<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>The only Good Thing about I3 Clarity Diamonds is the PRICE<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><h2>Cheap, Cheap, Cheap<\/h2>\n<p>Money Pinchers, Bargain Bin Buyers  Listen up&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\nYou&#8217;ll Spot this when Jewelers Advertise such Sales as a <strong>One Carat (1.00) Diamond Solitaire for $799!<\/strong> WOW! Now that&#8217;s Really Cheap! I3 Diamonds are always Selling Dirt Cheap. <strong>Buyer Beware!<\/strong> If it sounds too Good to be True, it generally is!<\/p>\n<p><h2>Common Uses<\/h2>\n<p>\nCommon uses for I3 Clarity Diamonds are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/the-worst-tennis-bracelet-ever-made\/\">Cheap Diamond Tennis Bracelets<\/a>. (Look at the Diamonds in the Bracelets that sell for $200, <strong>they&#8217;ll look like Globs of Glue!<\/strong>) They also use these Low Grade Diamonds for Earrings and Pendants as well. People normally don&#8217;t get too close to these to really see the difference, <strong>but you&#8217;ll notice the difference in Sparkle<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nJewelers usually Restrain from using these type of Diamonds in Engagement Rings or Wedding Sets. They&#8217;re just too Poor to Wear and look at for the rest of your life. &#8220;<strong>He loved me so much that he got me this Horrible Diamond!<\/strong>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h2>Last Tidbits on I3 Diamonds<\/h2>\n<p>\nWith so many Flaws in these Lower Quality Diamonds, <strong>these Diamonds have a Tendency to Chip and Break as well<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>\nFracture Lines run through the Stone and can cause it to Cleave in Half with a Good Strike at the Wrong Angle.<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>Beware of Blunt Force Trauma!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;No Honey, I didn&#8217;t purposefully Smash it with a Hammer, Honest!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h2>Forget about Certification<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>With I3 Diamonds it doesn&#8217;t matter in the least if it&#8217;s Certified<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p><h2>It Just Doesn&#8217;t Matter!<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>There is nothing Lower on the Grading Chart than the I3 Diamond you just Bought<\/strong>&#8230; the only way to go is up!<\/p>\n<p>\nIf Jewelers thought that they could get away with calling an I3 Diamond an I2 Clarity, <strong>they would<\/strong>. Even if there was the Slightest Chance that they could&#8230; <strong>they&#8217;d try it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nSo Trust me,<strong> if it&#8217;s Marked an I3 Clarity<\/strong>, then by all means, <strong>it is an I3 Clarity Diamond<\/strong>. No Ifs, Ands or Buts! <\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>So No Certification in the World will Help it<\/strong>. It is what it is! No one&#8217;s Saying it&#8217;s Better than what it really is. Jewelers are just Hoping to <strong>Dump it for any Price they can<\/strong>. In this Circumstance, you do get what you Pay for!<\/p>\n<p><h2>Diamond Color<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>And as far as Color goes with I3 Clarity&#8230; Who Cares?<\/strong> Usually it doesn&#8217;t matter much because the Diamond&#8217;s so Nasty looking&#8230; who&#8217;s looking at the Color? <strong>Seriously!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So if you&#8217;re looking for a Great Big I3 Clarity Diamond Sale, then look no Further. <\/p>\n<p>\nWalk into any Jewelry Store, tell them that you want to <strong>Buy the Crappiest Diamond they have<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>\nWait and see what <strong>Shocker <\/strong>they bring out for you. <\/p>\n<p>\n(You may have to be Sitting Down for this one!)<\/p>\n<p>\nJust Ask yourself one <strong>Question <\/strong>while you&#8217;re Saving Tons of Money&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;<strong>Is an Ugly Rock Really Worth it?<\/strong>&#8220;<\/p>\n<p><h2>Hmmmmmm&#8230;?<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>Cheers!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>I3 Clarity Diamonds, you gotta Love them.
