 		I am looking at a 2.12 round diamond.  Clarity - SI2.  Color - I.  Measurements are 8.32 X 8.26 X 5.13.  Depth is 61.9.  Table  is 56%.  Crown height is 16%.  Pavilion depth is 43%.  Girdle is thin faceted.  Polish - very good. Symmetry - excellent.  Culet - none.  Flourescence none.  It says it is an excellent ideal cut.  What should I be paying?

 		The table and depth are within Ideal specifications, but the diamond is not Ideal. An Ideal diamond would be a GIA Excellent/Excellent or an AGS Ideal/Ideal. This diamond takes a hit on the polish being Very Good and not Excellent.

Using the info you posted, the HCA cut adviser gives this diamond a score of 2.6, all VG's, with the comment, "Worth buying if the price is right". For a more accurate opinion on the diamond you would need to provide the crown and pavillion angles from a Sarin.

Depending on the girdle and the actual angles, if the diamond has blue fluorescence or not,........... You could be potentially looking at roughly $6135/carat, give or take.

Sounds like this diamond has real potential to be a very good performer.  

Why use a big word when a diminutive word would be succinct!
