Hello all,
Throughout this forum there has been many siding with the fact that HCA is a very good representation of the diamond''s cut thus light performance but there have also been those that say it''s got flaws just as any other system.
Where is the actual truth in this?
To me it seems HCA pays more attention to light performance than actual exact proportions of the stone be it TIC or FIC etc. If this is indeed the correct way to grade a diamonds brilliance then why is so much attention put into numbers?
It seems the future will be more orientated with a diamond''s light performance than actual proportions as it still is today. The former will hence drive the price more than how proportions drive the price today. If this indeed happens then it will add credit to HCA?
I''m sure Gary''s smiling at the thought, but what do others think?
