Opinion on Diamond and Question about ring setting

methree Rough Rock Total Posts: 3 Last Post: 6/16/2005 Member Since: 6/15/2005	I would like to get some comments on the following diamond. Also, how much of an effect does the ring setting have on the diamond itself or is this purely a matter of personal preference? Thank you. Measurement: 6.33 - 6.42 x 4.01 Carat weight: 1.01 Cut: Ideal Color: E Clarity: SI1 Depth%: 62.9% Table%: 57% Crown Height%: 13 Pavilion Depth% 45 Symmetry: Very Good Polish: Very Good Girdle: Medium Culet: None Fluorescence: None Grading by EGL Am I better off looking for grading done by GIA?

The diameter of the stone is way too small, the girdle too thick, the total depth too deep, and so on. On the other hand, if you have it graded by GIA, they do not even grade proportions or cut.
