What shape are 2 and 3? Princess/radiants?

See if you can get Sarin or OGI reports on the stones.

They are all princess cuts. How do I get Sarin or OGI reports?

Who is the seller of the diamonds? You should be able to get a report from them. If not, you may want to look elsewhere.

You can also have as many diamonds as you can work out sent to an independent appraiser for full analysis. Many sellers will send a diamond to David Atlas before you pay for the stone. If this one won't, again, you may want to find one who will. www.gemappraisers.com You pay David's fee and then if you want the stone, you pay for it and I believe David can send it to you.

You may want to call him ahead of time to discuss which stone might be your best option, but it is hard to know with fancy shapes until you've seen them.

For the moment, David has the best guidelines for fancy shaped diamond proportions. You can see them here:

Good luck with your purchase.
