They both look good on paper. Pick the one you like better. It means there are some very small clouds, but it isn't shown on the diagram because they are very small.

By the numbers alone, they both look good. They both scored below a 2 on the HCA (first one got a 1.2 ex/ex/ex/vg and the second one got a 1.4 ex/ex/vg/vg) so let your eyes be the judge when you see them in person tomorrow. Look at them individually under different lighting conditions and see which one you prefer. I think they'll both be lovely.

Big thanks to JulieN and gwendolyn The diamond will be set in a 4-prong setting. Will Thin to Medium girdle cause a issue ? In any event, I really don't want to lose or chip a stone.

No, that's good. Just buy insurance.

it is always harder to find a "mind clean" stone than a eye clean stone. |

See which one you like best, did you specifically want VVS clarity? You may know you could drop to VS or even SI in some cases, but it is a personal choice. ' Additional clouds not shown or clouds not shown" is a common remark you may find in the comments section of a grading report, to plot them would make the clarity plot look unecessarily busy and possibly offputting, so as they have no impact and can't be seen, they are just mentioned for the sake of completeness.
 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... - Stephanie M Thorn |

Date: 5/23/2008 7:26:15 PM This really depends on the wearer - is she hard on her rings etc? and, it has also be said by others, to an extent on luck - if a diamond sustains a hard hit on just the right spot, it could chip regardless of the girdle.Author: Hoos Big thanks to JulieN and gwendolyn The diamond will be set in a 4-prong setting. Will Thin to Medium girdle cause a issue ? In any event, I really don't want to lose or chip a stone. That said, thin to med is, in my understanding, desirable - as was mentioned, just be sure its insured for real peace of mind
