Unless you are looking for a top-notch investment diamond, you can compromise a little bit on the diamond’s clarity. Typically, imperfections in a diamond’s clarity aren’t very visible to the naked eye. This means if you’re planning on wearing or showing off a diamond, no one will notice clarity flaws. This is especially true for diamonds that have a clarity grade of SI1 or better.

For color, look for a diamond in the G, H, or I color range. These diamonds will look beautifully clear and have no noticeable shades of yellow in them.
