However I think from my limited knowledge it was a fairly good cut: table 62%, crown 13%, girdle-thin-med. facet, culet-none thanks for the quick respone!

Andy Rough Rock Total Posts: 3 Last Post: 4/9/2002 Member Since: 4/9/2002	yes that is what I'm referring to. Thank you. the above was something I had just purchased. Any feedback on my decision? This was my first purchase however as I'm beginning to get initiated into the world of diamonds, I'm beginning to question my decision/think I could've done better. Any inputs?

lawmax Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,260 Last Post: 3/8/2009 Member Since: 1/1/2000	Are you considering returning the diamond? If not, I don't see any need to make yourself nuts about it. I'm sure the body color must show a bit of yellow tint. To better assess the cut quality of the diamond, you'd need a Sarin report that shows all of the diamond's measurements and/or buy an ideal scope (see the menu bar above) and you will get an idea of the diamond's light performance. Read the tutorial on the site for more information about diamond cut. Hope that helps you. :)
