I Clarity Diamonds are by Far, <strong>the Most Inexpensive (Cheapest) Diamonds you can Buy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Granted, this can always change depending on the Cut and Color, but generally <strong>this is True<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to Save Money, if you want to get an Engagement Ring or Wedding Ring and <strong>NOT<\/strong> Spend an Arm and a Leg, then I Clarity is the place to be.<\/p>\n<p>You will always be able to Find Great Deals, Promotions, Clearance Sales and Huge Reductions on I Clarity Stones.<\/p>\n<p>\nWhen you see <strong>One Carat Diamonds<\/strong> Advertised in Magazines and Fliers for only <strong>$1,999<\/strong>&#8230; <strong>Trust me, it&#8217;s I Clarity!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><h2>2) You Can Buy a Bigger Stone<\/h2>\n<p>\nBy Buying I Clarity, you&#8217;ll be able to Buy a <strong>Larger Carat Weight<\/strong> Diamond.<\/p>\n<p>If you Buy a Higher Clarity (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jamesallen.com\/loose-diamonds\/round-cut\/?CaratFrom=0.50&#038;CaratTo=15.00&#038;Color=F,E,D&#038;Clarity=SI1,VS2,VS1,VVS2,VVS1&#038;Cut=Ideal,Excellent,TrueHearts&#038;PriceFrom=&#038;PriceTo=&#038;Sort=Price,%20DefaultOrder&#038;ViewsOptions=Images&#038;showAdvanced=show&#038;Polish=EX,ID&#038;Symmetry=EX,ID&#038;Lab=GIA&#038;Flour=None,Negligible&#038;DepthFrom=45.0&#038;DepthTo=80.0&#038;TableFrom=50.0&#038;TableTo=83.0\">like SI, VS or VVS<\/a>), you&#8217;ll only get 1\/2 or Less of the Carat Weight for that same Price.<\/p>\n<p>So I Clarity <strong>allows you to Go Big!<\/strong> And we all know that Women <strong>LOVE<\/strong> Big Diamonds! Most Women Dream of Wearing a One Carat Diamond or Larger.<\/p>\n<p>With I Clarity&#8230; <strong>Those Dreams are Possible!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2 Carats, 3 Carats or Bigger, are much more Affordable Stones.<\/p>\n<p><h2>3) It&#8217;s hard to see the Inclusions<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>It&#8217;s True!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As much as I&#8217;d Love to say it isn&#8217;t, <strong>I can&#8217;t&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Only half the People that look at an I Clarity Diamond will see the Inclusions in the Stone. In fact, I&#8217;d probably say it&#8217;s Less than that. Flaws, Inclusions and Imperfections are <strong>Not exactly Easy to Spot<\/strong>, especially if you&#8217;re looking at a Diamond under 1.00 Carat in Weight.<\/p>\n<p>Most people&#8217;s Eyes aren&#8217;t that Good. You have to Bring the Diamond close to see any Flaws, Inclusions, Blemishes or Imperfections. <strong>Most of these Flaws are Microscopic Anyway<\/strong> (You have to use a <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00EXPWU8S\/?tag=jewelry-secrets-20\">Jeweler&#8217;s Loupe<\/a> or a <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B005MZ7BQY\/?tag=jewelry-secrets-20\">Microscope<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Unless the Flaws are Obviously Gigantic, Huge or <strong>Black<\/strong>, most people won&#8217;t see them unless you point them out.<\/p>\n<p>This is why I Clarity isn&#8217;t as Bad as most people would say, <strong>including myself<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>I Clarity is what it is. They do have Eye-Visible Inclusions in them. After all, I Clarity means &#8220;<strong>Included<\/strong>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<p>But, unless you really Stare at the Stone Good, or Scrutinize it well, at First Glance, you probably won&#8217;t see anything, <strong>and neither will anyone else<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>No one will know it&#8217;s I Clarity unless you tell them!<\/p>\n<p><h2>3) I Clarity makes up 1\/2 the Market<\/h2>\n<p>\nI Clarity Diamonds are Everywhere. So much so, they make up Half the Market.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s because<strong> Mother Nature is Flawed<\/strong> (Not Perfect). Most things Born in Nature have Identifying Marks and Characteristics to them (<strong>we all do<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<p>Diamonds have Inclusions and Flaws and Eye-Visible Imperfections. <strong>Big Deal<\/strong>. It&#8217;s just the way it is.<\/p>\n<p>Just about Every Pair of <strong>Diamond Stud Earrings<\/strong> that you see in Stores Today is I Clarity. <strong>Diamonds Pendants<\/strong> are the same way. Tennis Bracelets = Yep, <strong>I Clarity!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Men&#8217;s Rings, Gemstone Rings, Pinky Rings&#8230; just about any type of Jewelry you see has I Clarity Diamonds in them.<\/p>\n<p><h2>It&#8217;s The Norm!<\/h2>\n<p>Sure you can find <strong>Higher Clarity Diamonds<\/strong>, but most people wouldn&#8217;t want to Spend that Extra Money on a Pair of Earrings like they would an Engagement Ring.<\/p>\n<p>\nEngagement Rings are usually <strong>the only Piece of Jewelry that people get that Picky about<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>No matter, I Clarity Diamonds are Everywhere and just about anybody you Stop on the Street will have some.<\/p>\n<p><h2>4) Certification Doesn&#8217;t Matter<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Ouch! <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nYou won&#8217;t Hear me say that often. But in this case, <strong>it&#8217;s the Truth<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>When you Buy the Lowest Quality Grade there is, <strong>Certifying it Doesn&#8217;t Matter<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Now if you were to Buy a Higher Clarity like <strong>VVS<\/strong>, <strong>VS<\/strong> or <strong>SI<\/strong>, then I&#8217;d say by all means <strong>YES<\/strong> get it Certified. <strong>Absolutely!<\/strong> But, I Clarity, to me, <strong>it&#8217;s Not a Big Deal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Certification Guarantees that the Quality of Diamond you Buy <strong>IS<\/strong> the Quality of Diamond you are getting.<strong> If you Buy high Clarity, you&#8217;ll want Proof of that<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>If you Buy Low Clarity though (<strong>No Hiding the Fact that it&#8217;s Low<\/strong>), then why Spend more Money for someone to tell you that???<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<strong>You Bought the Lowest Clarity there is&#8230; Here&#8217;s your Proof!<\/strong>&#8220;<\/p>\n<p><h2>See how Silly that Sounds?<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>To me, it&#8217;s Crazy.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I Clarity is I Clarity. <strong>You Get what you Pay for<\/strong>. I Clarity has Inclusions. It&#8217;s the Lowest Clarity there is. You know this. But at the same time, they are the <strong>Cheapest<\/strong>. So for me, it&#8217;s a Great Trade off.<\/p>\n<p><h2>5) No Diamond Switching<\/h2>\n<p>You won&#8217;t have to Worry about Jewelers Switching out your Diamond with a Lower Grade Stone&#8230; <strong>You already own that<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Jewelers have Tons of I Clarity Diamonds, they don&#8217;t need More and they wouldn&#8217;t Want to Swap an I Clarity Stone for an I Clarity Stone. <strong>Why Bother?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is Great News to you. You&#8217;ll have no Worries about Dropping your Ring off at the Jewelers for Sizing or Repairs. The Diamond you get back will be the Diamond you dropped off.<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>I Clarity is Peace of Mind!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><h2>The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n<p>So you see, <strong>I Clarity may not be the Best Clarity Stone<\/strong> there is, but there are some Awesome Advantages to Buying them over <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jamesallen.com\/loose-diamonds\/round-cut\/?CaratFrom=1.00&#038;CaratTo=15.00&#038;Color=F,E,D&#038;Clarity=VS2,VS1,VVS2,VVS1&#038;Cut=Ideal,Excellent,TrueHearts&#038;PriceFrom=&#038;PriceTo=&#038;Sort=Price,%20DefaultOrder&#038;ViewsOptions=Images&#038;showAdvanced=show&#038;Polish=EX,ID&#038;Symmetry=EX,ID&#038;Lab=GIA&#038;Flour=None,Negligible&#038;DepthFrom=45.0&#038;DepthTo=80.0&#038;TableFrom=50.0&#038;TableTo=83.0\">a More Expensive Diamond<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>You can get a Large Stone, that for the Most Part, faces up well.
