Im in dilema between 2 diamonds atm.. I have two diamond offered to me, both same size 0.76 carat and both Ideal Heart and Arrow.
I know cut wise they both are really good the only differences are:

First Diamond : F color SI1
Second Diamond: G color VVS1

Can i tell the difference? Its an extra 500 for the VVS1 so it tempted me but the other one has better color (in the near colorless range)

Thanks for any input i can get :))

Please give other information that you have on the stones. Dimensions, table and depth %, crown, pavilion angles, girdles thickness, star and lower girdle facet size.

With the present info, I would go with F SI1 assuming eye-clean.

Besides the info needed that SC listed, do you have images to prove these are h&a diamonds such as hearts images and some for arrows please?  Do you know if the SI1 is eyeclean?

Which grading lab please, GIA, AGS or other?









Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be...

GIA do not grade H&A. It probably just state what is engraved on the girdle. As Lorelei said before, the only way to confirm if it is an actual H&A is to look at the image of the stone through a H&A scope, we will need both the hearts image, pavilion face up, and arrow image, table face up position.
