I would also look for VS2 and G color and get a little bit better cut. I think vvs1 is over kill, unless that's something you're looking for...

shirleyo Rough Rock Total Posts: 3 Last Post: 2/19/2004 Member Since: 2/18/2004	What is a good depth and table for a 1 carat princess cut diamond? Where is a good website that will explain the ranges or various characteristics or a princess cut diamond? I want to stay in the D-G color range, and I would like to get a square princess cut? what should the lenght to width ratio be. Thanks in advance Shirleyo

Try to aim in the ranges for 1A, 1B, 2A and maybe 2B. Those should all be well-cut stones. If you can find one that is 1A/1B...yay! Otherwise the 2 range will still be a fine cut and may give you more options. Don't JUST use the cut grade charts but also make sure to get IdealScope images or similar so you can gauge light return of the stone. Using the cut charts and pictures of the stone will help you if you are purchasing online. If you are purchasing offline, using the charts and your eyes will help immensely. The stone you asked about, it is a 1A stone...so it should be very lovely in person esp with EX EX and the great girdle. It's immensely hard to find stones that fit those parameters so well, do you find the stone beautiful in person? If so, with those specs...I would give it a HUGE thumbs up. I believe JCard thought you meant a round stone...not princess. A round stone with those specs would be a dog..ugly! ________________________________ "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." -Albert Einstein
