IS A VS1 OR VS2 BETTER?

THE ANSWER

VS1 is technically higher clarity. But both are excellent choices. VS means "Very Slightly Included." Inclusions exist but are difficult to see under 10x magnification. Impossible to spot with the naked eye in either grade. The practical difference is minimal. VS2 costs less. That savings can go toward a larger stone or better cut. Most jewellers recommend VS2 as the sweet spot. You get eye-clean diamonds without paying for invisible perfection. Choose VS1 only if you want the reassurance of a higher grade on paper. For wearing and enjoying, both look identical.
