First look: not that bad at all for a traditional princess.

Now, you have to find out the P1-angle, see whether what the range is of the pavilion angles (is 39.9 average ranging from 39.6 to 40.2, or from 38 to 42).

Personally, I do not like the high crown angle, but this is not abnormal in a traditional princess.

All in all, the stone looks promising. Do you have any pics, Idealscope, ASET-scope?

Live long,

How would the above diamond compare with this, assuming the crown height is within normal limits:

Just wondering, because i like the settings at blue nile...
thx!

The BN-stone has less info, so it is harder to judge.

However, it is less square.

And its depth is not deep enough to make it a possible high performer.

Between the two, I would not consider it, and get more info on the first one.

Live long,

Because Paul can''t say this... I will. If you are looking at Princesses... I would take a look at the ones he cuts... you can find them on his site and there is a good amount of information on there ... and you can buy them through Wink (PS vendor)... and you will find pricing on Wink''s site. Paul and Infinity Diamonds cut some of the nicest princesses out there. So... just throwing that out there for you.
