Re: POSTING FROM STATES TO AUSTRALIA................

I use USPS It cost 91 bucks to send a flat rate international medium box with insurance of $2500 to Western Australia from Western NY. I opted for the oversized and heavier box because it's usually safer than sending a little envelope and declaring a ring valued at $2500. Insurance/Registered/tracki...

Re: GIA fancy grading and Recutting

I've never experienced blue in a diamond before, so I don't know what the threshold would be for GIA. The stone does have yellow fluor. I sense that the fluor mixing with the grey body color is giving the olivey green color, but there is also a blue component that I can perceive. Now, whether or not...

GIA fancy grading and Recutting

So, I bought a fancy grey (haven't sent to GIA yet for grading) oval. This little sucker is pudgy. My jeweler said it doesn't have a girdle, but a corset. Lots of extra weight at nearly 78% depth. There is a some skin/indented naturals left on the stone.I plan on sending it to GIA and having it recu...

Thanks for the compliments! Chrono should I try to do a pic with antifreeze next?? LOL.

Re: Starruby photo comps for Pregcurious

About the Argyle... It was listed as Argyle by the vendor, but I didn't pay the premium for provenance... so it may be suspect... I don't know if Argyle really pays attention to their browns enough to memo them or inscribe them. I guess I'm just left with a nicely colored diamond with an unusual cut...
