Hello All. I''m new to this forum as I''m shopping for an engagement ring for the first (and hopefully last) time. I''ve been working with a friend of a friend who works as a diamond wholesaler (I know, everyone has one of those!) and I''ve narrowed it down to two stones that I like very much, but am unsure about the cut quality (one is a radiant and one a cushion). I am well aware that there is no official cut grading for cushion and everyone has their own preference. According to Gemappraisers.com, the radiant cut is only 4A, but my "friend" assures me that it is great and it looks fine to my untrained eye. Anyway, here''s the stats on both (sorry, no pictures):
Cushion Brilliant
Measurements 6.28x5.78x4.04
Table: 67%
Depth: 69.9%
Culet: none
Girdle: thin - very thick (faceted)
Polish: Excellent
Symmetry: good
There is also a comment that says:
Crown angles are greater than 40 degrees
As for the other one:
Cut-Cornered Rectangular Modified Brilliant
Measurements: 7.44x5.88x4.05
Table: 69%
Depth: 68.9%
Culet: none
girdle: slightly thick - thick
Comments: Additional clouds not shown. Surface graining is not shown.
polish: good
symmetry: very good
Any help, advice, and opinions would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!
