Hello all, I am new here and this is my first post. Please pardon any ignorance.
After spending two days in the diamond district, I ended up with a GIA graded diamond that is rated as follows:
Carat: .79
Color: H
Clarity: SI2
Cut: Very Good
Clarity Characteristics: Twinning Wisp
Polish: Excellent
Symmetry: Excellent
However, when I plug in the following dimensions into the Holloway Cut Advisor, I get a fair grade :/
Depth: 60.7%
Table: 61.7%
Crown: 34.7 degrees
Pavil: 41.5 degrees
Culet: .1%
When I shine a flashlight or laser pointer at it I see lots of fire, but Holloway claims poor. The results are:
Light Return Good
Fire Poor
Scintillation Poor
Spread
or diameter for weight Very Good
Total Visual Performance 6.5 - Fair
I spent $2700 on this diamond. Comparable GIA graded ones (Excluding dimension considerations) seem to go for $2900ish.
Please advise, I would appreciate it very much and thanks in advance.
