How do these round stones look?

[peonygirl]

They're all WF H&A or Expert Selection and seem to be eyeclean (please let me know if you disagree so I can remove them from the list!). I ran them all through the cut advisor and posted the results. Thanks so much for your help!

Wow, i dont know if I can eliminate ANY of them- they all look great! The only thing I can think of is to see a couple of the stones in person that you decide on (because some may perform a little itty bit different the the others)-- I dont know if one choice is better than the other, as i said, they all look great!

 

[strmrdr]

Put all of em side by side and except for 1 and 5 and maybe 6 you would be hard pressed to tell them apart and most wouldnt pick out 1 and 5 in most lighting face on.

Buy the cheapest one thats verified eyeclean or call WF and have Brian look over 2 or 3 of em while talking to you and telling you about the monor differences.

My favorite? #1 and #5 and #6
#1 I like the angles
#5 I like because its the classic style cut
#6 because its an ACA and that has a slightly higher kewl factor.

 

[peonygirl]

Daniel, can you tell me a little bit about the process of having WF send out stones for viewing? How many stones do they send out at once, do they charge shipping, etc? Thanks so much!

 

[Daniel B]

You know what Im not sure about WF shipping details, But others will let you know soon!

Just email or call them and they'll let ya know tomorrow

i do agree with storm about hte angles in #1- they are in the sweet spot.

At the risk of asking for too much help, here are a few more smaller diamonds I found. They also scored well on the cut advisor thingie. My boyfriend asked me to send him a few links, but I''m afraid I''ll overwhelm him!

Daniel - That thread is helpful when considering a non-stocked diamond (one we don't own that we would need to bring in from a supplier for our own analysis before selling it to the client) but I believe all diamonds being considered in this thread are Whiteflash's own inventory, so that info may not answer Peonygirl's question. Thank you for doing the search though.

Peonygirl, can you be more specific? I assume you are wondering about an in-stock diamond being sent to you or an appraiser for viewing?

 

[peonygirl]

Yes, that''s exactly what I mean, John. Thanks for your help!

 

[valeria101]

Choosing? These things are so super-selected to start with it is pretty hard to find something relevant to tell them apart.

You've got different color and clarity grades lines up, and if I were you

the pic would be high color&SI1. Size nad cost would make the othre relevant factor. Cut has been more than covered (IMO) by the sellers who chose these guys to be listed on their site.


Don't ask me how I got down to there two! One 1.2 cts G / 7k and 1.1ct E / 75.k

I hope the spot on the arrow shaft (7 o'clock) doesn not show on THIS

And there isn't much to see insider the smaller E color

Can you get both?

 

[peonygirl]

Valeria, you are very wise.

I guess I have one last question then. Do you think this diamond will be eye-clean: http://www.whiteflash.com/round_ideal_cut/Round-Ideal-Cut-cut-diamond-2045487.htm? I can see the inclusion but know that it is many-times magnified. I''m planning to have my boyfriend ask when he calls, but I''m just curious if it''s definitely clear one way or the other.

 

[strmrdr]

out of the second batch, more of the same.
out of the 11 there isnt a dog in the bunch.
It comes down to which one you want.

Do you think this diamond will be eye-clean...

Not that wise

If WF agrees to ship it to me first and you would wait... I can surely tell you

otherwise... what you see is what I see.
I am not even sure if the inclusion is black or appears so because of the lighting.

... and it was really to avoid those questions that between the two 7mm G-s I picked the other with a less evident smudge & and 1k less.
