4 out of the last 5 round brilliants that I''ve bought all have P.A. = 41.2. Of course there''s leakage. No doubt. But without the ideal scope I can''t see it, even with the diamond resting on the fingers. I consider this amount of leakage minor and inconsequential. Similar to whether inclusions in a diamond are of consequence. What made these particular diamonds attractive was the high crown angles (> 35), which I love, and the price that I paid for them, which I really love.
Because I''ve bought and looked at lots of round brilliant cuts and can compare them to others, I''m comfortable with this amount of leakage. I''m not sure how a novice consumer searching for their first diamond on the internet would arrive at a comfort level for leakage (cut), inclusions (clarity), color, size without looking at a lot of diamonds in real life.
