Hello, everyone. We have found these two 2ct stones, almost the same price. We are deciding which one to buy. Stone 2 is a VS1, I am a bit concerned with crown angle and depth. Is it too shallow? Which one do you think is a better cut?

I only have the image for the 2nd stone.

I am very grateful.

1. 2.04/G/VS2: (no image yet)
8.11-8.14 x 5.04mm
Depth 61.9 %
Table 57%
Crown Angle 34.5°
Crown Height 14.5%
Pavilion Angle 40.8°
Pavilion Depth 43%
Star Length 50%
Lower Half 80%
Girdle Medium, Faceted: 4.0%
Culet None


2. 2.03/G/VS1: (image attached)
8.19-8.24 x 4.96mm
Depth 60.3 %
Table 58 %
Crown Angle 33.0°
Crown Height 13.5%
Pavilion Angle 41.0°
Pavilion Depth 43.5%
Star Length 50%
Lower Half 75%
Girdle Medium, Faceted: 3.5%
Culet None

Re: What do you think of these two round?

Do you have the diamond L/W/D(mm) of the diamonds? Just by looking at it, in my opinion, the 2nd diamond will have a good size visually for its weight, im no expert, but I like the 2nd diamond, But they are pretty tough to choose between when its strictly measurements and no images.

Well stone 2 will dev look bigger than stone 1 from the proportions posted. how big of a price difference is it between the two?

Thanks, price difference is very small, so it is not a factor anymore.

My main concern for the 2nd stone is crown angle/depth, and table size. We really want an ideal cut. We are not sure if 33 crown angle and 58 table size will make the stone look less ideal. The two stones are from two different vendors, so we cannot compare side by side.

Honestly, the 58% table is fine. 33/41 Angles from my understanding might not be the best on paper but in real world produces brighter diamonds, but possibly less flashes of fire. Another positive with a 33 angle as I mentioned earlier, is what is helping it give a wider diameter, so you get "more" diamond for less weight.
