Based on the numbers that is, I'm still waiting for more information on how the SI2 rating looks. I have very little knowledge of good angles for a Flanders... so your help would be much appreciated. Also, I haven't seen it yet, I'm curious if I should keep looking or if this has a chance to be good. Sarin Data: 1.56 carat, G color, SI2 (I know, possibly dangerous) 6.68X6.70 Table: 61% 4.07mm Depth: 70.1% 4.68mm Pavil: 50.4% 3.37mm Crown: 34.6% 1.11mm Girdle Ht: 1.9% .13mm |

A 34.6% crwon height is very high or incorrect. SOmething is not measured correctly or you have some of the numbers mixed up. I like the Flanders shape. Hope you find this a nice looking stone. The SI2 may suit you and the budget....Nothing wrong with SI2 in some cases.

HAHA, don't steal mine!!! I believe some vendors around here have their sources - problem is, they are very limited in what types they can find. I definitely am worried about the SI2 when I was looking more for a VS2.

Ok yeah, there are two numbers next to crown, the second I didn't put down which is 16.6% - does that make more sense? Thanks for your help!

I'm not gonna steal it! PS and it's members have been nothing if not respectful. But I would like to know if you are pleased with your purchase. So far, I've not known anyone who's bought a Flanders! Please post the results of your purchase if you should go through with the Flanders (and PM me with the name of the vendor if you would). Good luck! PS: Don't forget pics, when you get it too!

I'm just giving you a hard time about "stealing it"... these babies are hard to find sometimes! I do wish there were more out there for comparison shopping and to be able to find the ideal grades that I wanted. I do have one more question on this sarin data - does the girdle appear too thin for a 4 prong setting? I checked out some of the fancy cut charts but I'm not sure if the thickness is as important for a modified square.

how dare you mock me with your flanders! I just LOVE them....can I ask what the price is? I've never priced them.... I think a reg ol' princess is more in my budget...and I'm looking for a diff size...I won't steal eiher! please share! And I just LOVE si2s. With the money you save, you can throw in some nice side stones!

Have you seen the HOF Dream? I can't believe they're charging so much for it. But it is gorgeous. I hope the new modified square that Rhino is researching will challange it. When oh when will it be announced?! VH (aka GroomZilla) |

ohhhh indeed! Rhino dumped that 'surprise' thread on us and then split... Get back here with more info...LOL... I was thinking that I bet it has the shape of an interesting gem stone I saw on another board...maybe I'll go get the link.... And they don't call it the Dream for nothing. KEEP DREAMING. Can you imagine a 1.75 G vs2 for over 17 grand. Puleeze.

Dreams... exactly just that. How I wish I could find one for half off And yes, I'm also EXTREMELY curious about rhino's tempting new square!The pricing is like a H&A ideal I believe, I'm not going to tell for now out of respect for the vendor - not that they have told me not to or anything. I'm trying to determine if I should go for the shipping fee and see it in person or not... The chances of a SI2 being up to my standards are probably around 10%, but it is MUCH cheaper than some similar diamonds with higher clarity. I'm lucky, she only wants a solitaire from what I can figure!

ummmm, yeah you should see it in person! Unless your trusted vendor assures you how it looks from all sides! ESPECIALLY b/c it's an SI2.
