Diamond Guide
Every Vanior piece is set with certified lab-grown diamonds. Use this guide to understand the two grades that most affect how a diamond looks: colour and clarity.
Understanding colour
Colour grades run from D to Z, by how much warmth a white diamond shows. These are the six grades most people choose between.
Icy and pure. The whitest grade there is.
Offered at VaniorLooks identical to D; only a lab can tell them apart.
Offered at VaniorWhite to the eye and beautiful in any metal.
Offered at VaniorA whisper of warmth, seen only beside whiter stones.
Reads white in gold; slightly warm next to D–F.
Gentle warmth that shows more in larger stones.
At Vanior: every piece comes with E colour. Choose F to save $150, or D for the whitest grade. White gold shows colour the most; yellow and rose gold hide small differences.
Understanding clarity
Clarity grades the tiny natural features inside a diamond, judged by a grader under 10× magnification. The fewer and smaller they are, the higher the grade.
No marks inside under 10× magnification, only the faintest surface traces. Exceptionally rare.
Marks so tiny that a trained grader struggles to find them, even under magnification.
Offered at VaniorSmall marks seen only under magnification. Eye-clean, and excellent value.
Offered at VaniorMarks are easier to find under magnification and may be visible to the eye.
At Vanior: every piece comes with VVS2 clarity. Choose VS1 to save $100, or VVS1 for our cleanest grade. All stones are certified by IGI.
