howard Rough Rock Total Posts: 2 Last Post: Unknown Member Since: 8/22/2002	I am looking at a modestly priced diamond. It is an emerald cut. 0.61 Color E Grade VS2 63.2 Table 62 depth Sym: Gd Polish GD 5.72x4.18x2.64 For 1205 I'm a bit concered about the length to width ratio. it is 1.36. Should this be a concern? Or at this price, am I getting all i'm going to get. Thanks!

Ssome people bought stones with 1.3 L/W ratio and were very happy. Check Emrldforher post in this thread: What is the best cut for an Emerald Cut???. Emrldforher has done a great research buying Emerald cut diamond :) Pricescope

geo10000 Rough Rock Total Posts: 38 Last Post: 12/11/2005 Member Since: 8/22/2002	Length to width ratio is definitely a choice preference. The Gemological Institute of America defines a preferred length to width ratio in an emerald cut of 1 to 1.5 . Please keep in mind, however, that a ratio of 1 to 1.3 could face up better than a 1 to 1.5 ....as the overall cut proportions can make or break a diamond.
