stone 2

any thoughts?
i'm leaning towards stone 1 both are claimed to be eye clean and no fluor

 

[stone-cold11]

both look good, 1.76c is cut more for brilliance and spread and sacrifice fire for it, 1.52c cut is more balance but the larger lower half will result is a more splintery look, some like it some not.
