Sapphire Clarity – What You Should Know
Unlike diamonds, sapphires and other colored gemstones do not follow a globally standardized clarity grading system. Instead, they are assessed at eye level, considering how inclusions impact their brilliance and beauty. We believe in full transparency and are always happy to provide additional photos or videos to help you make an informed decision.
Eye-Clean
No visible inclusions to the naked eye.
Very Slightly Included
Minor inclusions visible upon close inspection but do not affect brilliance.
Slightly Included
Noticeable inclusions at eye level that may slightly impact light reflection and color.
Included
Prominent inclusions that significantly affect light reflection.
