Hi,
I am a first-time engagement ring buyer who has covertly surveyed my girlfriend''s tastes, been to Hatton Gdns several times (surprisingly really enjoying the experience) and done my best with the research and would really appreciate an independent opinion on a stone before I buy it.
The GIA certificate states:
Cut-Cornered Square Modified Brilliant
Measurements: 5.78 x 5.62 x3.49 mm
0.91 carat
Colour: F
Clarity: VS1
Clarity Characteristics: Feather
Polish: Excellent
Symmetry: Very Good
Fluorescence: None
There is also a diagram of the diamond with 68% across the table, 62.1% depth, ''none'' at the cutlet and ''slightly thick - thick'' on the girdle.
With the platinum setting I am going to pay £3300 which is around about US $5100
How do the cut/dimensions rate?
Should I worry about the feather?
Is there anything else I should be looking for?
This is a big purchase for me so any critique or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks!
