I would be somewhere between 4900 and 5700 if the stone was cut well. If it isn't another 10-15% below those figures

oldminer Ideal Rock Total Posts: 4,964 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 9/4/2000	Small table size, generally a deep depth, the number of facets is greater on a real Asscher than most modern emerald cuts, wide cut corners, relatively high crown height. All of those denote ASSCHER and not regular near square emerald cut. David S. Atlas GG(GIA), ASG, Sr. Mbr. NAJA www.datlas.com

They have a store here on 47th, and they have lovely things. I would love to stop in and see a real royal Asscher! Getting to be a Asscher fan...
