1.81 E SI2 - $11,500

[QuantumKen]

Went to the diamond district in ny and found an SI2 with the above specs and with a loupe could only see a tiny black speck on the side of the diamond. It actually looked like it could have easily been an SI1 or even VS2. Is this a decent price?

Was it certified? By who? What cut? What shape?

 

[QuantumKen]

I''m sorry. It is GIA certified, ideal cut, radiant.

Who said it''s ideal? GIA doesn''t use that term...

It''s certainly in the ballpark for price, but to really be sure it''s a nice stone pictures and more specs would be great. Cut is the real telling factor here...

Hmm, I didn''t write down the specs, but in retrospect I believe it is good cut.

You just said ideal...this is really important because the best cut will give you the best sparkle. See if you can get the GIA report # from the dealer then we can look it up online and try to help some more!

Yup, what neat said - there are worlds inbetween from good to ideal cut!
