Is A VS2 Diamond Good?
As an old seller who trades with diamonds in more than 60 different countries in the world, I can say for a fact that G VS2 color and clarity combination is with no doubt the winner in the global market village.
This type of diamond has a high demand in America, Asia and Europe which shows that people in different places in the world find this combination as a good one.
The question that arises is – Why?
-
G color is very close to the colorless diamonds (D,E,F) and yet is 15%-50% cheaper (depends on the color we compare it to).
-
When set in jewelry it seems white and it’s nearly impossible to tell whether it’s G or D without comparing it to another diamond.
-
VS2 clarity is a very desirable one as the diamond is still very clean but the price comparing to Flawless, VVS or VS1 can be 15%-50% cheaper.
The price list of 1ct diamond G VS2 is $8,500 while of a 1ct D IF it’s $18,300ct.
This only emphasize the fact that by buying a G VS2 diamond we pay less than half the price for almost the same look in the macro view.

Please don’t forget that one of the main parameters in a diamond is the cut which determines the luster of the stone and helps keeping its’ high value, therefore please always ask for a triple Excellent diamonds in Round cut especially in the high end combination.
To sum it up, if you’re after a diamond that looks white and clean but don’t want to spend a fortune – then go for G VS2 for sure.
