About this stone
0.53ct round brilliant diamond. D colour, VVS2 clarity, excellent cut. GIA certified, report 1475514932.
What these grades mean on the finger
Graded D, this stone sits in the colourless band, the top of the GIA scale. Face-up it reads icy white in any metal, and the difference between it and the grades just below is paper-thin to the naked eye.
VVS2 clarity: the inclusions are so small a trained grader needs magnification and patience to find them. To the naked eye this stone is immaculate.
At 0.53 carats, a well-cut round of this weight faces up at roughly 5.1 mm across. Cut quality decides how big it looks from across the table, which is why the cut grade matters more than the weight.
Graded by GIA, the laboratory that wrote the 4Cs. The original report travels with the stone and is independently verifiable on GIA Report Check before you pay a cent.
Provenance
- Prodiam sells diamonds cut at Procut DCW and diamonds sourced polished through the trade. Ask the desk to confirm the route and available provenance records for this individual stone.
- A grading report records the diamond's characteristics. It does not by itself establish where the diamond was mined or who cut it.

Measurements and price context
Read this diamond's report alongside the dated comparison samples below. Measurements and price guides help frame a viewing; they do not replace one.
Its longest face-up measurement is 5.19 mm, about 3% above the 5.04 mm estimate derived from our sample for this shape and scaled to this weight. Length alone does not establish face-up area or cut quality.
The report records 62.6% depth. Read this alongside the cut grade, table, crown and pavilion proportions; depth alone does not establish light performance.
For broad price context, our 8 September 2026 sample of 0.45–0.59 ct D-colour stones at VS1–VS2 clarity, with an Excellent cut filter and no fluorescence, had a median asking price of R17 000; the middle half was R14 500–R19 400, including VAT and loose-stone delivery. This sample is not matched to every characteristic of this diamond and is not its valuation. Confirm the individual stone's current quote with the desk.
Dimension estimates use a sample of 5 078 sourced listings captured 25 August 2026, scaled to this stone's weight. They are estimates, not a cut grade.
