Color
Color is most often described by either an AGS (American Gem Society)
or GIA (Gemological Institute of America) grading. The AGS grading ranges
from '0' to '10.' In contrast, the GIA uses an alphabetic scale from 'D' to
'Z.' The best gradings are designated by either a '0' or a 'D.'
Clarity
The degree of imperfection of a stone is usually measured by GIA grading
as shown in the scale below.
