So I am still being a little indecisive about this ring/diamond business.
I had my heart set on the most sparkley/brilliant princess center stone...but there were some issues with compatibility in the design of the ring...long story
Anyway, then I saw a trillion cut sapphire and started looking into trillion (trilliant, trillium etc) stones.
Now I am thinking that a trillion center stone - not the triangle shaped ones, but with the convex (bowed) sides - would look amazing.
Of course, I spent so much time looking up specs on princess cuts, and that all goes out the window with trillium. I know the first reply I get will say something about you have to see it in person / can''t tell with specs etc., but any advice on how I should go about finding / selecting a trillion would be greatly appreciated, what questions should I ask. I have searched, but it seems that this shape is very difficult to find (particularly as I don''t want the straight triangle.
I know that it might be difficult to find a really sparkley/brilliant trillion diamond, but any advice would be appreciated.
It has to be at least 6mm ''length'' in one direction probably between 6-8mm, of course as symmetric as possible. Mostly I want as sparkley as possible, from what I have read people are saying at least 50% depth...but can I really find one like this!? I would be looking for G/H VS1-SI1...but I think I am going to have to be more flexible.
Here is one suggestion I found:
Trilliant Cut, GIA Certified, Premium Cut - Modified Triangle Brilliant - Depth/Table/Flour/Pol/Sym/Dim -- 33.8 57 None VG G 8.63 x 7.89 x 2.94 - 1.00 carat E SI1
I can view the GIA certificate, so I know its the right shape, but no pictures/photos, and the certificate/ GIA don''t make inferences as to the cut quality of trillions.
Any help would be appreciated
