Hi all, new to the forum... wish I''''d known about it 9 years ago when I got married!
My wife''''s original diamond was "lost" about 3 months ago, and I''''m working on a replacement through the insurance company. The company I have to use is a long way away, so seeing the stones in person is out of the question.
Her original stone was .71c, D color, VS1 clarity, I don''''t know the dimensions off-hand, but I know it was cut shallow so it looked more like a .9 - 1.0c stone.
I don''''t want a short/fat stone, or a long/skinny stone but want one that fits somewhere in between. What length to width ratio''''s should I be looking for? Also, how important is depth?
The two stones in question are:
10.11 X 5.95 with a depth of 49.4%
8.08 X 5.60 with a depth of 68.9%
Both are 1.01 - 1.02c in size.
Would either of these be acceptable shapes, close to optimum for a pear?
Thanks in advance!
