Advice... which Diamond?

[bugaloosis]

I just found another one on JA, they restocked!... a little bigger with a Si2... has a cloud, but looks eye clean to me

The HCA score came back with:

Light Return... Excellent
Fire... Excellent
Scintillation... Excellent
Spread... Very Good
Total Visual Performance 1.3 - Excellent
within TIC range

I think I may add it to get idealscope...

Add it to the idealscope. Si2 clouds could impact brilliance significantly. Make sure this one doesn't, if it does disqualify.

Will do!

Hi...

I finally got the Idealscope image for this stone:

http://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut/0.70-carat-h-color-si1-clarity-sku-246271

This is what the James Allen rep wrote me...

The gemologist found the 0.70 carat-H-SI1 (diamond 246271; $,2890) to be the liveliest performer of the three. It has an excellent amount of brilliance (white light return), fire (dispersion of color) and sparkle that is well balanced and symmetrical. It is a true "H" in color (meaning it faces up a nice white) and the inclusions in the diamond blend well (meaning that it does face up "eye clean").

What is your expert advice?

Thanks again so much!

I think it's a good stone. TINY bit of leakage. But well within acceptable range. I think it will be a good choice!
