Very Light Brown is the brown notation one step deeper than Faint Brown, printed beside a D-to-Z colour letter, on these pages mostly K to N. It is what shoppers often call champagne. It is a different grade from Faint Brown, which is lighter, and from Light Brown, which is deeper still, and none of the three is a fancy grade: a stone graded Fancy Light Brown or Fancy Brown has no colour letter at all and is priced as a coloured diamond.
