No way to judge a princess cut from the numbers. Can your vendor get you a ASET image of the stone?

Hi agonzo

It is difficult to judge a Princess by numbers, I don't see any flags from the info given apart from the thick variation of the girdle but images would be best as there is so much important info we are missing, but if this is for sale from a jewellery store then images won't be possible. You could ask the jeweller if they have an ASET scope you could use or alternatively you could buy one here. The results are straightforward to interpret with a little study, read more here.

If you are unsure, if you have a Jareds nearby go and check out their AGS0 Peerless Princess to see how a well cut Princess can look, then you have a point of reference.
