Hi there!
I have just purchased this diamond and upon receiving the report via email (the diamond has not been sent yet), I am wondering if it will be eye clean? Can anyone give me a wise opinion? :)
The price was approx $2200, was this good value or did I get taken for a ride? I know there are many experts on this board that know infinitely more than me when it comes to these things!
Thanks so much for your help!!

Here are the statistics:

Emerald Cut
0.91ct
Clarity: VS2
Colour: H
Measurements: 6.74 x 4.77 x 3.13
Depth 65.6
Table Width 60&
Crown Height 14%
Pavillion Depth 49%
Girdle: Thin, Polished
Polish: Very Good
Symmetry: Very Good
Culet: None
Fluorescence: None

The report does not say anything about the cut but the website listed it as excellent.

Hard to tell, it could be a pretty stone, or not, can't really tell without photos and ASET images if you have them - also which EGL lab graded the diamond?









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...

It does not appear to be EGL USA - it would say so - so have it sent at the dealers expense without you paying first - to one of the appraisers on the board - top right.
If the dealer says no - it is beacuse it is a waste of time, which it probably is.

But you must pay the appraiser (ferryman)

Thanks for your replies...a little concerned as they would only accept wire transfer for international shipments so we have already paid (brilliance.com) . Should I be worried?
I have asked for these additional photos etc., however I fear the diamond may already be on the way?
