All,

Appreciate any help for this newbie in making sure he didn't goof up on a major purchase.

I purchased this rock for an engagement ring; it cost $7605 on Blue Nile. Is it a good rock? Will it look yellowish on the platinum setting I got with it?

It is a Princess Cut, btw...

Carat weight: 1.62
Cut: Very Good
Color: I
Clarity: VVS2
Depth %: 73.8%
Table %: 76%
Symmetry: Good
Polish: Excellent
Girdle: Thin to slightly thick
Culet: None
Fluorescence: None
Measurements: 6.72x6.56x4.84 mm
Length/width ratio: 1.02

Hello Larry! Welcome!

Congrats on your purchase!
As you may know, one cannot jugde fancy shapes just by looking at papers.
Supposing the crown has a decent height (over 8-9%), it could be a nice stone. The table is a bit large, but this is very common for princesses. Depth is good. Table % should be smaller than depth %, though. Are yo able to get a Sarin?
Girdle is really nice. Shouldn't be too uneven.

I color looks fairly white when set in platinum.
