I just saw one of the prettiest diamonds I have ever seen. It was a 3+ stone in a yellow gold man''s ring. It was this man''s grandfather''s ring, so obviously an older cut, but he said it isn''t a OMC. He didn''t have any specs on it, but it was a warm k-m kind of color with the most fire and colors I have ever seen. They didn''t flash as much as they were just constantly present. It looked like a completely different stone compared to my E colored H&A RB.
This got me wondering that if I took my K/L color 1.25ctw stone and had it recut, would I be able to get that king of terrific fire out of it. It is a nice stone, average cut, vvs clarity and average sparkle. Just kind of "off color" as a couple of jewelers have commented.
Does anyoe know if it is likely that I''d be able to turn it into a sparkler like that, as well as approximate weight loss to expect and cost to recut? I''m just looking for a rough idea on whether this would even be worth looking into.
