Talk to me more about this stone.

2.01 Carat K-SI1 Ideal Cut Cushion Diamond
I like that it is obviously 2 carats and has similar ratios to the stone i had which was 1.107ish and the table seems bigger which means it probably looks larger then a 2.01? I also like that it has Excellent cut.

concerns K color and SI1


and
1.66 Carat K-IF Ideal Cut Cushion Diamond

Love the idea of an Internally FLAWLESS stone. the 1.66 carats is a worry and K color. seems more round then that cushion look, wouldn't i be better off with just a round stone?


I know Grayish looking stones is worse then brown and yellow.

I think its better to be Brown then yellow then gray?

The 1.66 has roundish corners but is still close to square at 7 x 7 mm...the setting you choose can make it look very square as well so I would not worry about it being rounded on the corners.

Ask for the ASET on the 2carat SI1. I like the facet pattern but the ASET will tell you more about the light return and the gemologist can give you their opinion of the brightness and if it is eye clean, etc. It will be rectangular instead of square but very large face up. Nice price for a 2 c stone. Love the rectangular stones set E/W. The table is larger than I like (64%) mid 50% or less ...usually the smaller the table the higher the crown which is quite lovely in a cushion cut stone.

Yes, brown tone preferred to yellow, but personally would prefer gray to yellow, but everyone has their own preferences.

Post the ASET when you get it...the gemologist will tell you which stone they like the best between the 1.66 and the 2c.

what is E/W? Either way?

So does that mean the the 2.01 with the table of 64% will appear larger?


Asset images have been requested for both. I know they are in the other thread but i want the gemologist to compare, i also added
