Hello all. You guys helped me out so much a couple months ago while I was looking for a diamond. Thanks! And now a buddy of mine is in need of some help too.
He is looking for an Asscher cut, probably a 0.8-0.9 ct, and someone has convinced him that he should get a D or an E, and that he shouldn't get anything less than a VS1. I'm not sure that is good advice. I am thrilled with the G, SI1 I bought. Of course everything is a trade-off.
But what neither of us know much about is the Asscher cut. I bought a round, so it was fairly easy to know whether I was getting a good cut or not.
How do I know if an Asscher is a good cut? What should I look for? Is there a chart or something that shows me good proportions? In the KNOWLEDGE section here at Pricescope there is a page on fancy shapes, but the links to the cut charts don't work for me. Any help, links, advice, or opinions would be much appreciated. Thanks!
