Will I See A Difference?

A question we have been asked quite often, recently, is whether it is possible to "see" a difference in a diamond that has been graded with 'Very Good' (VG) Symmetry" compared to a diamond given a Symmetry Grade of 'Good' (G)?

First, what is Symmetry? Symmetry refers to the "meet points" or junction lines that align the top (Crown) with the bottom (Pavillion) of the diamond. See Figure below:

Diamond Symmetry.

The red arrows show the meet points and junction connections between the facets. When the meet points are exactly aligned the diamond will receive a Symmetry grading of Excellent or Very Good. If there is just a tiny deviation, then it a Symmetry grade of 'Good' is given.

These minute differentials can most always only be seen under microscopic magnification and is not something you will see just by looking at the diamond.
