Assistance with Blue LGD

[ShinyPink]

I would love to have a round, fancy vivid blue around 1.5 cts. (7.5mm) under $850. I looked at videos, trying to find striations, etc. but I'm not so great at it. Please help!

Here are videos of some I liked. All are the darker color I prefer and are HPHT. Thank you!

I would wait for better cut options to show up. If you don’t mind preloved I can list the 1.62 ct fancy vivid blue I have. It’s just been sitting in its box unset. I have other stones to set with higher priority.

Thanks for the input. I don't recall your 1.62 - is there a video link?

Post in thread 'Comparison of fancy vivid blue and colorless H&A rounds'

If you are shopping for fancy vivid blues, be aware that the IGI grade covers a pretty big range of hues and tones. The good news is that the loupe360 videos are pretty accurate for blues in my experience.

I found a few smaller well cut fancy vivid blue rounds listed for attractive prices. The vendor image/video of 3 is no longer online, but it was the lightest of them.

The small leakage area in the ASET image of 3 is not noticeable in person. In fact...
