Yet another request to you to evaluate a diamond sight unseen that is of utmost importance to me, but here goes anyway:
My Goal:
My goal is to get a round diamond for an engagement ring that is as sparkly as I can get within my budget of $7000. I don't want to get just an average diamond that I have to dip in liquid paper every day to make it appear whiter and save $1000.00. I'd rather pay the same amount for something that has a better sparkle/whiteness to it, than get something duller that looks just as big.
Price: $5600 (diamond only)
GIA Report "Round Brilliant"
Weight: 1.30 carat
Depth: 62.2%
Table: 58%
Girdle: Medium to Thick, Faceted
Culet: None
Polish: Very Good
Symmetry: Very Good
Clarity: SI2
Color: G
Flourescence: None
Sarin Report:
diam: 6.91 mm (6.90-6.92) x 4.31
depth: 62.4%
crown: 35.4/14.3 z
pavillion: 40.8/12.8 z
table: 3.92 mm 56.7%
culet: 0.6% very small
girdle: 3.0% (2.2 - 3. %
When I did the HCA this morning I was getting 1.5, but now that it matters, doh!, I am getting "2.5 Very Good -Worth buying if the price is right" and "Very Good" in the four categories it rates. The diagram on the GIA seems to show all of the inclusions at the edges in one spot, that I hope could be hidden by a mounting. I'm under no deadline to buy. Any and all, even mean
, comments appreciated.
