I am looking to get a radiant cut diamond for an engagement ring in the next month. Was hoping someone could give me advice on this diamond if there is anything I should be concerned about. It seems to be fairly close to the AGA international trade cut but I am not sure ... I have found this diamond: Graded by: GIA Thanks! |

Hi Steve, Yes, you are right, the table and total depth are belonging to 2B AGA class. I don't see anything wrong with these numbers. It seems that this diamond is listed in the web for about $12000. |

Does the dimensions/aspect ratio look to be of high quality? I thought I saw something that said 10% girlde height or more and I am not sure how to determine that from the certificate. Thanks again |

Well, dimensions or length to width ratio is the matter of personal taste. In this case it's about 1.1. AGA charts for Radiant suggest Length/Width ratios as preference only Medium to Slightly Thick girdle is ok. It should be less than 5% - nothing close to 10% |
