クラリティの原則と要素
ラボラトリー・グロウン・ダイヤモンドのクラリティは、そのフロー（欠陥）の度合いによって決まります。すべてのストーンには、ユニークな個性と魅力をもたらすインクルージョンやブレミッシュがあり、その多くは顕微鏡でしか見えません。ダイヤモンドのクラリティの尺度は、フローレス（FL）からインクルーデッド（I3）まであります。この尺度が低いと、インクルージョンがダイヤモンドの透明度、輝き、耐久性に影響を与える可能性があります。

Reinheitstabelle für im Labor gezüchtete Diamanten
Title:Reinheitsskala für Diamanten und Reinheitsgrade
Subtitle:
Die Reinheitsskala von Diamanten gibt die Reinheit eines Steins anhand von zwei natürlich vorkommenden Merkmalen an: Einschlüsse und äußere Merkmale. Die Anzahl, Art, Größe und Position äußerer Merkmale sowie innerer Einschlüsse bestimmen den Reinheitsgrad eines Diamanten. Die Reinheitsgrade von Diamanten werden unter standardisierten Betrachtungsbedingungen bei zehnfacher Vergrößerung bestimmt. IF steht für einen innen makellosen Diamanten, während I3 einen Diamanten mit deutlichen, sichtbaren Einschlüssen bezeichnet.
Was bedeutet Diamantschliff?
Die Schliffqualität hängt von der handwerklichen Ausführung ab. Der Begriff beschreibt, wie die Facetten eines Diamanten mit dem Licht interagieren und sein inneres Feuer sichtbar machen. Der Schliff verleiht jedem einzelnen Stein seine Persönlichkeit. Er perfektioniert die Proportionen, die Symmetrie und die Winkel. Der Präzisionsschliff von im Labor gezüchteten Diamanten verleiht ihnen ihre unverkennbare Brillanz.
Schliffprinzipien und -faktoren
Die Qualität des Schliffs eines im Labor gezüchteten Diamanten basiert auf seinen Proportionen, seiner Symmetrie und seiner Politur. Ein meisterhafter Schliff erzeugt präzise gearbeitete Facetten, die das Licht aufnehmen und reflektieren, sodass der Stein aus jedem Blickwinkel funkelt. Bei der Bewertung des Schliffs beurteilen Experten das Erscheinungsbild des Diamanten in der Draufsicht, sein Design und die handwerkliche Ausführung.
Formen von im Labor gezüchteten Diamanten
Die Swarovski Created Diamonds Kollektionen umfassen eine Vielzahl verschiedener Formen und Schliffe im Labor gezüchteter Diamanten. Die Form eines im Labor gezüchteten Diamanten bezeichnet seine Kontur oder äußere Form, wenn er von oben betrachtet wird. Der Schliff gilt als Qualitätsmerkmal. Er zeigt, wie präzise ein Stein facettiert und poliert wurde und wie harmonisch Winkel und Proportionen der Facetten auf das Licht abgestimmt sind. Wählen Sie die Swarovski Created Diamonds Form, die zu Ihrem persönlichen Stil passt. Jeder Stein ist auf Brillanz geschliffen und verleiht Ihrem Look intensive Leuchtkraft.
Farbprinzipien und Faktoren
El color más deseable en un diamante es la ausencia total de color. Las piedras incoloras alcanzan precios muy altos, pero también son extremadamente raras, mientras que los diamantes de menor calidad posiblemente adopten tonos amarillos o marrones. La escala de colores de los diamantes comprende de D a Z, y las colecciones Swarovski Created Diamonds solo utilizan diamantes creados en laboratorio con una clasificación de color D-G.

¿Qué es el peso en quilates de un diamante?
El quilate es la unidad de peso que se utiliza para medir todas las piedras preciosas, incluidos los diamantes creados en laboratorio. Cuando se comparan diamantes, es posible que uno tenga más quilates que otro sin que parezca más grande, o que dos diamantes cuyo peso en quilates sea el mismo difieran en tamaño si uno está tallado con más profundidad que el otro. Un quilate pesa la quinta parte de un gramo y se divide en 100 puntos.

Tabla de pesos en quilates de diamantes
Title:Escala de quilates de diamantes creados en laboratorio
Subtitle:
El quilate es una unidad de medida estándar aceptada en todo el mundo y destinada a pesar los diamantes. Se deriva de la palabra “carob” (‘algarroba’), semilla que los comerciantes del mundo antiguo usaban como referencia al pesar diamantes. Un quilate equivale a 200 miligramos, de manera que cinco quilates equivalen a un gramo. El quilate del diamante no equivale al tamaño de una piedra, sino al peso de esta. En líneas generales, los diamantes son más caros a medida que se incrementa su peso en quilates.
Calidad asegurada
Todos y cada uno de los diamantes creados en laboratorio que se engarzan en la joyería fina Swarovski Created Diamonds se someten a la evaluación y la certificación del IGI (Instituto Gemológico Internacional) a partir de las 4 “C”, baremo reconocido en todo el mundo. La talla, la pureza, el color y los quilates de cada piedra determinan su calidad y valor. Swarovski solo utiliza diamantes creados en laboratorio de alta calidad con calificaciones G+ en color y VS+ en claridad.

Frequently asked questions
Diamond 4Cs FAQs
What are the 4Cs?
Every diamond varies slightly from the next and has its own individual distinguishing characteristics. Laboratory grown diamonds are 100% diamonds, and just like mined diamonds our laboratory grown diamonds are evaluated according to the 4Cs of diamond grading. The 4Cs are color, clarity, cut and carat weight, and they are the globally accepted standards used to assess the quality of diamonds.
Is diamond clarity important?
The higher the clarity grading, the less inclusions or blemishes a diamond has, making it a higher-value diamond than one with a lower grading.
What is the highest diamond clarity?
Diamond clarity is a measure of the purity of the stone graded by the visibility of two types of characteristics - inclusions and blemishes.
In order to assess clarity, the diamond is inspected under 10x power magnification. The number and nature of external (blemishes), and internal characteristics (inclusions), as well as their size and position, determine the grade.
Gemologists grade diamonds from Internally Flawless (IF) as the highest quality to Included (I3).

Gemologists grade diamonds from Internally Flawless (IF) as the highest quality to Included (I3).
Are laboratory grown diamonds flawless?
No, nearly all diamonds (mined or laboratory grown) have inclusions. Metallic inclusions can occur in laboratory grown diamonds. If an expert spots a trace of metal in a diamond, they can assume it is laboratory grown. While laboratory grown diamonds with defects do exist, Swarovski only uses high quality laboratory grown diamonds certified by the International Gemological Institute (IGI) according to the 4Cs to ensure that only the finest quality diamonds join the Swarovski Created Diamond collections.
Do laboratory grown diamonds get cloudy?
No, laboratory-grown diamonds do not get cloudy over time. They are 100% identical to diamonds with the same physical and chemical properties, and should not degrade or change appearance over time. Where poor quality diamond seeds have been used, some laboratory-grown diamonds contain obvious defects, such as color tinges from impurities in the diamond or crystal structure imperfections. The laboratory grown diamonds processed in Swarovski Created Diamonds jewelry are a very high quality standard and do not have unnatural, problematic characteristics.
How are laboratory grown diamonds certified and graded?
The laboratory grown diamonds processed in Swarovski Created Diamonds jewelry are hand-selected and examined by experienced gemologists to ensure they fulfill our high quality standards. Every piece of jewelry in the Galaxy and Eternity collections is accompanied with a digital laboratory report from the International Gemological Institute (IGI).
What are diamond facets?
Diamond facets refer to each flat surface that creates the shape of a diamond. Every diamond possesses multiple facets that enable it to absorb and reflect light.
How is diamond cut quality determined?
We often think of a diamond’s cut as shape (round, heart, oval, marquise, pear), but what diamond cut actually does mean is how well a diamond’s facets interact with light. The cut of a diamond is the measure of the quality of the shape, geometry and finish of the diamond. Round brilliant diamonds receive a formal cut grade on a scale from Ideal (the best) to Poor. Swarovski is uncompromising on cut quality to ensure all of our laboratory grown diamonds have optimal light performance and sparkle.
What is the best diamond cut?
Cut refers to how a diamond’s facets interact with light to reveal its internal fire. It is the cut that gives each diamond its personality, and perfecting laboratory grown diamonds proportions, symmetry, and precision-cut angles of Swarovski Created Diamonds gives them their brilliant shine. The best cut has a balance between the width and depth to create symmetry, neither to shallow nor to deep. Creating the perfect refraction point for light through the diamond, reflecting it within the diamond and highlighting its polished brightness.
How is a diamond’s color determined?
Color refers to the natural tint inherent in white diamonds. The industry standard for grading color is to evaluate each diamond against a master set then assign a letter grade from D (colorless) to Z (light yellow).
The closer the diamond is to being colorless, the higher its quality.
The closer the diamond is to being colorless, the higher its quality.
Do laboratory created diamonds have blemishes?
Where poor quality diamond seeds have been used, some laboratory-grown diamonds contain obvious defects, such as color tinges from impurities or structural imperfections. Swarovski does not sell laboratory grown diamonds with unnatural, problematic characteristics.
What is diamond carat weight?
A carat is a unit of weight used specifically to measure precious stones including laboratory grown diamonds. A diamond may have a higher carat weight without appearing larger, and two diamonds of the same carat weight can vary in size if one is cut deeper than the other. One carat weighs 1/5 of a gram and is divided into 100 points.
What is the carat weight of a diamond, how is it measured and how important is it?
Carat weight it the standard weight unit for diamonds, and the first step in the grading process. Diamond carat weight is the measurement of how much the diamond weighs. Each carat can be subdivided into 100 “points.” This allows precise measurements to the hundredth decimal place. The weight of a diamond smaller than one carat may be described by its “points” alone. The larger the diamond is, the more carats it will be, but only you can decide how important that is to you.
Is it better to have a higher carat diamond?
This is an entirely personal question. If you are looking for a larger diamond, you should look for a higher carat, as this indicates the weight and therefore the size of the diamond.
