Please advise on princess

[vipersilver]

I have a diamond picked out and am going to look at it tomorrow. I have been reading that on princess you want the diamonds depth to be greater than table. Do you think it will affect this diamond. Here are the specs. Please help me out here.

Princess (GIA)
1.06
Depth 67%
Table 69%
Polish VG
Symm G
Clarity VS2
Color G
Girdle M-VTHK
5.89x5.88x3.91
Do not have crown #.

Please let me know if these specs in your opinion could present a problem.
I will be posting pics very soon .

On the AGA Cut grader, this stone is a 3A, mainly because of the girdle range. Very thick is usually not good because most of the time you''ll be paying for extra carat weight that will not be seen. That on it''s own received a 3A. The table received a 1B grade so it''s not bad. I chose an arbitrary number within the 1A range for the crown angle, so even if the crown % were ideal, this stone is a 3A. That being said, if you''ve seen the stone and think it looks good then maybe you should still get it. Numbers aren''t everything and sometimes a stone with not so great #s is gorgeous.

Princess (GIA)
1.06
Depth 67%
Table 69%
Polish VG
Symm G
Clarity VS2
Color G <------------- everything cool this far... nothing to comment on

Girdle M-VTHK <------------- no telling how much of it is "very thick". one might expect reduced spread because of this

5.89x5.88x3.91 <------------ but this is LARGE for 1 carat; just take a look at the database

"normal" would
barely be 5.5mm
Do not have crown #. <-------------- well, so what

AGA grades do not predict brilliance and having
it would not help with that either. I am not sure what good does it do to know.

"Will post pictures" you say

- that's great ! If you like how it looks and the seller can describe brilliance somehow, all for the better.

Hope some of my 0.2 worth helps.
