Advice on 2 karat diamond

[jargir01]

First time poster, first time diamond purchaser here. Looking for some advice on a diamond for an engagement ring. I found this one on JA and it seems like a good quality diamond but I could use some expert reassurance or caution. What are the strongest points / weaker points for this particular one? Is it a good value? Thanks in advance to you all, this is a great community.

Great modern cushions are soooo hard to find, and I am thinking that is why you don't have responses yet. I usually recommend Good Old Gold for any fancy cut diamond including cushions. They show you the light performance of the stone and will even make a video comparing stones for you. You just need to call and explain your parameters of specs and price range, and they will pick up some for you to look at. I don't see any on their site now that would work, but they can get them in.

Those you linked might be okay, but I don't love them.
