1ct Asscher Evaluation

[hedge]

I''ve been lurking in pricescope for a few months now to gain some information, and it really helped me narrow down what I am looking for. I''m at the point where I asked whiteflash to bring in an asscher to look at. It has a strong blue fluor, but they have assured me it does not negatively impact the diamond. Just wanted to see if anyone here had any strong thoughts on the diamond.

Just got confirmation from WF that the fluor does not impact the diamond negatively in any way, nor does it appear cloudy/milky in sunlight.

Seems like a little too much green to me in the ASET under the table.

Diamond is tilted in the picture.
With a 17% crown it would tend to show more green under WF''s setup because it is setup for rounds/princesses.
It isn''t a deal killer just get an evaluation of center brightness from the vendor.

From my P3 article:
"Green centers require that they be checked in-person for acceptable center brightness.

It indicates that the light return in the center may be reduced. Often, this is not an issue but needs to be evaluated in-person."

Ditto, that can be clearly seen, many factors need assessing with asschers when interpreting the images, they aren't like other shapes so much.
