Hi all,

I am new to the diamond ring hunt and am trying to educate myself on it. Can anyone provide feedback on the following diamond? It is listed at about $6,000

Thanks in advance! Would love to learn about the pros / cons / areas for improvement and savings!

$6000 seems very low for that stone. How are you getting such a great price?

It has really nice proportions and has promise to be a great diamond.

Some will say to drop down to VS1 or VS2 as these will be very clean and you can go up in size for the money. But that's all personal preference.

Double check with the vendor that the medium blue fluorescence doesn't make the stone appear hazy or milky.

And if you can get light performance images that always helps.

Thanks for the reply! I was able to get a photo of the diamond--I see a streak of gold on the diamond, would that be considered a flaw? Any feedback is appreciated





Thanks again for your help!

Its a reflection I believe

Not a flaw. The arrows only look black or dark when they reflect something like a dark camera body or fabric in the vicinity. In real life, the arrows alternate between fire (colored light) and brilliance (white light.) I think that's a little flash of fire.

$6000 is either an excellent price, or a listing error. You normally would not find even a H SI1 1ct ideal cut for only $6000.
