Hi Folks, been reading multiple threads on the site (and others) for a while and have ordered 2 diamonds to be delivered tomorrow (Abazias) and would love to hear any input of one you like over the other and why, or why you dislike one etc... I''ll post my thoughts and decision once they come and I have looked at them in person.
2.27 GIA 8.49-8.56-5.12, I, Si-2 Ex cut, VG polish, Ex Symmetry, no culet, strong blue fluorescence, 59% table, 60.1% depth, 50% upper, 75% lowers, 33 CA, 41 PA, girdle thin to medium, 1.1 on the HCA "100% eye clean" $10,621
2.058 AGS 8.17-8.22-5.04, I, Si-2 triple- ideal, pointed culet 56.1% crown, 61.5% depth 33.9 CA, 41 PA, 55% uppers 82% lowers- 1.6-3.9% girdle, Negligible Fluorescence. Said to be eye clean to most at the office which is a bit scary, 1.3 HCA. $11,950
Both came back Excellent on the gia facetware software, don''t have sarin or ideal-scope images or anything like that.
I love the size of the first, the strong blue fluorescence it seems is the only questionable attribute (again just by looking at the grading report), as fluorescence is a hotly debated topic... so we''ll see. The AGS looks good on paper but if there are any readily visible inclusions it will be iffy.
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks! John
