Are these types of diamonds a bad idea? I recently saw a similar type of diamond at a local jeweler and was amazed at how sparkly it was, however it was a 1.36 carat and looked the same size as the 1 carat RB I was also looking at. Seemed very deep.. Opinions? RubyRN

There is also a slight premium for the stones as they are branded cuts. A quick look at GOG's 8ternity and Star128 shows that the depth % to be in line with other well cut H&A RBs (very low 60s) so they should measure and look the same size. I have no idea why it would look smaller to you.

The one I saw in person was not the brands mentioned here, just a local store's take on extra facets.. wasn't too great :) I think I'll stick with a nice AGS0 RB. RubyRN

If someone likes the princess and radiant look and likes a round then they are it. ........... Karl has joined the diamond trade and is now posting as Karl_K
