Hello,
Could someone please tell me what an HCA is, I know what an idealscope is...are both of these only used on round brilliant diamonds, or can both be used on any diamond? I love a pear shaped diamond (which is what I have 1.25ct.) Is there such a thing as a heart & arrow/ideal cut pear? Do all pear diamonds have a bow tie?
Thanks for any info.

HCA can only be used for rounds but you can use Idealscope for fancies as well: http://www.pricescope.com/idealscope_fancy.asp

Also check www.gemappraisers.com/chrt2.htm for pear cut grading chart.
