dponda Rough Rock Total Posts: 3 Last Post: 11/13/2002 Member Since: 11/13/2002	Hello all: This site has been a great help to me. I have been reviewing threads for the last two months. As well as this site I have attempted to educate myself about diamonds as much as possible. I feel fairly confident with what I am looking for but I am still learning how to visually pick out an excellent diamond. Could anyone tell me if this is a quality marquise. 1.01 ct Color: E Clarity: SI 1 9.895.303.18 Total Depth: 60% Table Diam.: 66% Girdle Thickness: slightly thick (faceted) Polish: Very Good Symmetry: Very Good Flourescence: Very Slight Bow Tie: I have looked at approx. 20 stones and it seems to have a minimal amount of bow tie. Thank you ahead of time for any help.

I happen to love the marquise shape (have had 4 & just bought 2 more). But I don't like them short & wide, nor long & thin, yet some people do. Seeing it in person is the best way for you to know!
