I have been looking for quite some time a nice emerald cut diamond to be the center stone for a three stone diamond emerald cut ring. I came across this stone and I am thinking about ordering it, however I would like to get some of your expert advice first. This stone is within international fine cut 2A-2B.

Emerald Cut Diamond
1.4 Cts
H, VS2
Depth: 67.2
Table: 68
Crown 13
Pavillion 50
Girdle: Medium
Polish: vg
Symmetry: vg
Culet: none
Flouresence: very slight blue
Measurements: 7.49x5.43x3.65
EGL cert
price: $4950

Please share with me any options. I understand that I will need to look at it, however, any advice in advance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Ihave modelled this stones proportions for you on DiamCalc and it should look very nice.

However I strongly advise you have the stone sent to Dave Atlas for a pre purchase decision.

Should I be concerned about the faint blue flouresence?

Only that medium or strong would make an H look whiter.
Opinions vary about fluoro, I beleive it is an asset. I just sold a BIG rock with strong blue F that looked fantastic in shaded sunlight.

Thanks Garry for your feedback.
Do you think the asking price for this stone is a good deal or should I keep looking?
Thanks,
Carol

Deals are personal things.
You can search the price the same as I can thanks to Leonid our host with the most.
You must take account many factors when considering price - have a look at the B&M post on another thread here and see what I mean.
