Hi Guys,
I am new to the diamond industry and am in the process of buying an engagement ring for the love of my life.
Currently I have been doing much research on the internet and meeting many different jewellers, which has made the decision so much harder as there is so much conflicting information amongst each retailer I visit.
This is the diamond I have nearly pulled the trigger on:
Carat Weight 1.01 carat
Color Grade G
Clarity GradeVS2
Cut GradeExcellent
Fluorescence: Strong ( this does not bother me)
Holloway Grader gave it a 3.3 and showed fire and scintillation as only good, whereas the Fire-trace report graded these as Very Good and Excellent. I was a little confused by this.
I was hoping someone with a little more knowledge could shed some light on whether it is a good
diamond or not.
I have attached the GIA report,Ideal Scope Image as well as the Fire-trace report
The Jeweller has told me it is a bright ideal cut stone and personally recommend it. I just want to double check with you guys to see what you thought as I am very new to diamonds and wanted to make sure it is a good stone as it means a lot to me and my girlfriend.
Really appreciate your time and input.
