Enhanced diamonds are ones which have undergone one of two procedures in order for their clarity feature to be the best it can be.

One may wonder why this is such an important feature with regard to diamond grading.

A diamond is graded for clarity based on the number of flaws it has inside and out. The fewer flaws there are on it and inside and out the more valuable it is going to be.

In general diamonds become much more valuable the more they weigh, so the larger the carat the more expensive a stone is likely to be.

With diamonds most people are familiar with the 4Cs which is short for carats, color, cut, and clarity. There is another very important characteristic of diamonds known as fluorescence that also goes towards valuating a diamond and determining what it is really worth.

One part of the GIA grading report is to analyze the 4 C's of a diamond.

Laser drilling or enhancement is a procedure where a laser is used to enhance the overall look of a diamond.

The diamond is, without doubt, the most well liked and valued of all precious stones the world over. While diamonds are often worn to extreme by many celebrities and members of royalty, diamonds are also accessible and prized by the average consumer.
