I kindly request for your help. I have read all the tutorials available, done my research, and asked the representative from an online retailer I am working with hopefully the right questions. I have been sent some IS images on options I have narrowed down. From my untrained eyes they all look the same!! Please assist me in interpreting the images!
The most important thing to me is cut, followed by size. Color and clarity are low on my priority list as long as it is eye clean. Without further delay, here are my current options! All are GIA cert with 3xEX in cut, polish, and symmetry
Option 1 1.51ct J color SI2 (feather near the upper girdle that can be hidden with a prong) 7.38 x 7.4 x 4.56 61.7 depth x 56 table, 34.5 crown x 41 pavilion HCA 1.8, EX, VG, VG, VG
Option 2 1.53ct J color SI1 (crystal that can be hidden with prong) 7.36 x 7.4 x 4.53 61.3 depth x 58 table, 34.5 crown x 40.6 pavilion HCA 0.9, EX, EX, EX, VG
Option 3 1.54ct J color SI1 (eye clean) 7.41 x 7.45 x 4.56 61.3 depth x 58 table, 35 crown x 41 pavilion HCA 2.4, VG, VG, VG, VG Med flo
I have been advices that option 1 and 3 are the best in light performance despite the HCA score. I am leaning towards option 3 due ti the flo and eye clean. Any suggestions, any explanation on the images are appreciated!
