I feel like this knowlegde sharing allowed me make the necessary sacrifices to get a big, beautiful, icy and sparkling stone - on a tight budget. Here is the information on the stone: Round, 1.39 c, VS1, H, medium blue - my appraiser initially thought it an E or an F until he tested it for flouresence - and then decided it must be a G! As far as the VS1 - total bonus - I would have been happy with an eye-clean SI2. But I don't feel like I paid too much more for it. GIA polish & symmetry - EX, EX depth - 61.0% table - 55.1% cr - 34.2, 15.4% pav - 40.5, 42.5% girdle - 1.3% (0.8-1.7%) culet - pointed Plus, I got all this other information: http://www.niceice.com/certcopies/139hvs1_gia12160441/index.htm Cost: $7,300. All I can is, if you are still looking for a stone, please consider www.niceice.com. They have extremely exacting standards with a very low markup - far cheaper than a comparable stone on bluenile.com.
