1. You will be able to determine how well the workmanship went into the cutting of the diamond. The main characteristic here you can determine is the symmetry of the gem. This is the balance of the stone. You can count and see if the diamond contains the correct number of cuts per its shape. You can also check the proportions.
2. Chips, cracks, scratches. You can see these on the facet edges, the table and planes of the diamond. These are flaws on all sides of the external diamond.
3. The sharpness of the facet edges. The harder a diamond is, the sharper its edges will appear. Imitations will appear more of a rounded look especially under the loupe.
4. Bubbles, inclusions and flaws. Most often, these types of flaws can be seen only under the inspection with a 10x jeweler’s loupe.
