Advice on this stone

[Existential12]

PS has a been great education so far - and excellent community. Now I am ready to make a purchase of a Princess e-ring, so your help and opinions are valued!

This ring has been inspected by JA and is eye clean - what do PS ers think? I more or less have to buy sight unseen as I live overseas - hence JA, with its 60 days returns..

JA will compare up to three diamonds for you and tell you which one is the best. They will also provide asset images. Here is one I would want to take a look at.

Request an aset image of any JA stone you are interested in. Post the images. They will give you up to 3 images free.
That stone looks nice. Its kind of got a large table (I prefer smaller but thats my preference). It also has a very square
table...I perfer tables that have more curved lines and not so square (again, my preference). It just seems to soften the
sharp corners of a princess.

EDIT - just FYI...here is the look of a princess with a smaller table.

Here are a couple that might be worth looking into... (I dont know what your budget is). Not really seeing any JAs with small tables.

Thanks - on the large vs small table . Have requested the ASET images and will post here ..

JA seems a little slow with their customer service, BTW.
