Hi gang,
First let me say I like deals..seriously. But I also like quality, both would be great but I don''t want to drop 2 dimes on an engagement ring. That said, I could use your help...
1. AGS, H, VS2, 1.8 ct, polish/symetry/proportions all ''ideal'', fluoresence is negligible, girdle is .8-1%, table is 54%, depth is 62.2%, crown angle is 35% and pavilion angle is 41.2%. Price is $12,555. Good price? Also, is this a good cut or is 54% a little low?
2. Is that a better deal than the following: GIA, H, 1.86 ct, SI-2 (no visible flaw to naked eye), 62.1% depth, 58% table, good polish, very good symetry, no fluoresence...$11K. (no other info available)? Which cut is better, #1 above or #2?
3. What is the absolutely best cut - table, depth, crown angle, pavilion angle, etc....that gives you a great mix of white light and fire? Everybody throws out "ideal" cut but nobody can ever tell me what that means?? You''d think they''d have standards for that type of thing, but what do I know...Oh, and how important are symetry, polish and proportion?
4. Why does nobody every distinguish if a diamond is an H1 vs an H5? Doesn''t this make a difference?
Too much involved here!!! Sheesh, and I thought I was just buying a type of stone...
THANK YOU!
