I don't know much other than dark red/black = good and white = bad. But I have also heard that not enough white can be bad also... I would really appreciate and help I could get. I like this stone a lot, but I'm trying to get as much information as possible before I make the purchase.

You can not apply round standards to princess cuts.  You will always have more white in a princess than in a well cut round,

If your eyes are happy with this stone then buy it, it looks to be a very good looking stone.  An ASET would confirm that, but this should be a very nice stone.

P.S.  I make the above statement about buy it assuming that the price etc are good.  The appearance of the stone looks to be good from what you have given us.

I don't know a lot about princesses, but it looks like a nice image to me.  A little more white is very common in fancies.

Thanks for the feedback so far! Does anyone else have an opinion on this diamond. I am pretty sure I will buy it, but I would love for some of you experts to chime in

Wink is an expert so if he considers it might be a very nice looking diamond, that would give me confidence!!  Also as he says, an ASET image would be very helpful, you could ask the vendor if he has one.

See here for info on ASET  









Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be...
