Likely Moissanite or high-grade Cubic Zirconia based on high dispersion/doubling visible
Likely Moissanite or high-grade Cubic Zirconia based on high dispersion/doubling visible · Round Brilliant
Good to Very Good Cut
Carat
Approximately 0.50 - 0.75 carats
Color
Estimated D-E (Colorless)
Clarity
VS1 to VVS2 based on macroscopic appearance
Shape
Round Brilliant
Overall Assessment
This appears to be a well-cut synthetic stimulant, likely Moissanite, offering high sparkle and durability for jewelry use but lacking the value of a natural diamond.
Cut Quality
Good to Very Good
Brilliance
High; strong white light reflections from the crown
Fire
Very High; significant rainbow-like spectral dispersion typical of Moissanite
Scintillation
High; rapid flashes of light consistent with high-refractive-index synthetics
Proportions
Standard round brilliant proportions with a moderate table and crown height
Symmetry
Good; facet intersections show slight misalignment at the girdle
Polish
Good; surface appears smooth with high luster
Fluorescence
None observable under current lighting
Inclusions
No major internal flaws visible to the naked eye; potential pinpoint inclusions
Blemishes
Minor surface abrasions consistent with frequent handling
Origin
Synthetic/Laboratory-created
Treatment Detection
N/A; characteristic of synthetic manufacturing processes
Estimated Value
$20 - $150 USD depending on exact material (CZ vs Moissanite)
Certification Estimate
Unlikely to receive a GIA natural diamond report; potential IGI or specialized lab certificate
Investment Potential
Low; primary value is aesthetic rather than resale or rarity

Setting Suggestions
Six-prong platinum or white gold solitaire to enhance colorless appearance
Care & Maintenance
Clean regularly with warm soapy water and a soft brush to remove oils
