hi all. i'm totally a newb to diamonds. but it is that time
So hopefully I can get ahead of the game.
SO, here is the goal:
https://www.etsy.com/listing/165402707/marcelle-14kt-white-gold-cushion-fb?ref=market
(I understand that this is not a diamond, but aesthetically this is the look that I am going for).
Though I've learned a ton about diamonds recently, I will say trying to find a square cushion cut that looks like this has been extremely hard. I've tried price scope tools, but it seems like the vast majority of the diamonds have the "crushed ice look' (hopefully, i'm using this term correctly.)
Anyway, I watched the educational video on GOG. I believe what i want is the modern cut. The Hearts and Arrows cut I believe is the one I want... but I'm wondering if there are other modern cuts that have the same/similar type of facet pattern (Something more splintery rather than broad.), or am I limited to diamonds that actually have the Hearts and Arrows name.
Specs wise I was hoping for something 1.50ct - 1.65 ct. Something VS2, H and up.
I hope i phrased my questions right. In summary, I'm wondering if I need to buy the proprietary Hearts and Arrows cut, or are there other cuts where i can find similar facet patterns? Secondly, how would I go about searching for the different cuts. Are there any way to filter through the cushion diamonds to find something similar to the link above, or do I just need to click through everyone.
Thanks for all the help; much apologize if I'm asking a stupid question.
