First of all sorry for the first time post. Normally I would not need to post since all the information here is available. Maybe too much information since I am now confused and looking for advice.
I'm looking for a round brilliant diamond with the most sparkle. From the various jewellery shops I have visited I was lead to believe that a triple excellent would give the most sparkle but now that my research has brought me here it seems to me there is more to it than that like the Holloway Cut Adviser. Below are the three diamonds I have seen so far.
Diamond 1:
Colour H
Depth 61.1%
Table 58%
Crown 35.2
Pavilion 40.7
HCA=1.6
Diamond 2:
Colour H
Depth 61.9%
Table 58%
Crown 34.5
Pavilion 41
HCA=2
Diamond 3:
Colour I
Depth 59.7%
Table 59%
Crown 33.6
Pavilion 40.7
HCA=1.1
I guess what I'm trying to ask is for a general opinion on the above diamonds. My thoughts are that the tables/depths are too big but I could be wrong. Are any of these diamonds any good or are there better diamonds out there?
Lastly, should my priorities be triple excellent or the dimensions of the diamond. I'm starting to think that I might be putting too much emphasis on the HCA score.
Whiteflash and GoodOldGold would have been easier with there ACA and H&A diamonds but buying online isn't exactly an option for me.
Sorry for the long post. I appreciate everyone's opinions so thanks in advance!
