Your Tivol sales professional will discuss both the clarity grade as it appears on your laboratory report and specifics about the inclusions.

Visible inclusions may affect your enjoyment of your diamond's beauty, depending on the size of the diamond and the size and location of the inclusions. Large inclusions may deflect too much light, reducing a diamond's sparkle and brilliance. Truly flawless diamonds are very rare - in fact, some flaws or blemishes can only be seen through a microscope - the smaller flaws, the less likely they are to dampen a diamond's fire. Interestingly, these flaws often contribute unique tones and interesting flashes of color in a fancy color diamond.
