The clarity grade is determined by the flawlessness of the diamonds, meaning the lesser the flaws in the diamond, the higher it ranks on the diamond clarity scale.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat are Flawless (FL) and Internally Flawless (IF) diamonds?\u003c/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFlawless (FL) and internally flawless (IF) diamonds are highest on the diamond quality chart. This means they are the most flawless diamonds. To put things in perspective, FL diamonds and IF diamonds represent less than 0.5% of the diamonds in the world.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFL and IF diamonds are so flawless, they don\u0026rsquo;t have visible inclusions under extremely strong magnification. The diamonds are flawless, extremely rare, and hence, very expensive. But how expensive are these diamonds? There\u0026rsquo;s no for sure answer to this because the price of a diamond depends on many other factors. Besides, if it\u0026#39;s a\u003ca href=\"https://www.growndiamondcorp.com/lab-grown-diamonds/\"\u003e lab grown diamond\u003c/a\u003e of FL grade, it\u0026rsquo;s going to cost much less than a mined FL diamond.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifference Between FL and IF Diamonds\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThere are some differences between FL diamonds\u0026nbsp;and IF diamonds. The main difference is the blemishes, graining, extra facets, and small regions in internally flawless diamonds. Another difference is the price. FL diamonds are more expensive than IF diamonds, as the latter has some inclusions. However, the bottom line is, one can never tell FL diamonds from IF diamonds by the naked eye.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFL \u0026amp; IF Diamond Prices\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFL and IF diamonds are amongst the top quality diamonds because they are flawless and do not have inclusions. This is also a reason they are amongst the most expensive diamonds, whether they are lab grown diamonds or mined.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eOn the diamond clarity scale, FL and IF diamonds are right next to VVS1 and VVS2 diamonds, which are very very slightly included. Fl and IF are more expensive than VVS1 and VVS2. FL and IF diamonds are hard to distinguish with the naked eye. They have similar clarity, and hence, experts suggest it is better to avoid FL and IF for customers who are on a budget.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShould You Buy FL and IF Diamonds?\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFL and IF diamonds are extremely expensive as they are the best quality diamonds.

The reason being, FL and IF diamonds cannot be differentiated by the naked eye. Their clarity looks the same. Hence, it\u0026rsquo;s pointless to spend on FL and IF if you are on a budget. You could buy a little bigger size diamond for the same price that you\u0026rsquo;d pay for FL and IF diamonds.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eHowever, for those who want the best, FL and IF diamonds are the most suitable.
