Hi and thanks to eveyone for this wonderful forum!!

Question: I purchased a EC 3.63 GIA Certified stone. Measures 10.00 x 8.27 x 5.12 mm.
Depth: 61.9%
Table: 61%
Girdle: VT to Med
Cut: Small
Polish: Ex
Sym: Good
Clarity: F
Grade: IF
Flor: MB
Comments: None

It appears to fall into the premium depth and table, but yet the sym is only a good. The stone is quite bright for an EC and to the eye it could pass for a 4 ct.

I am concerned if I should return it for a lower grade and clarity cushion. I love the cushion too, and if I can get a larger stone that appears eye clean, would the money be better spent? After reading many threads, there is alot of chatting about grading on larger stones and how it would be smart to not shop by what it says on paper. Is this a better paper stone?

Thanks. Eva17
 
I am trying to include a photo of the ring. Any words of wisdom how i can get the photos from an email file to this forum???

Thanks again!
 
Julie, thanks for the reponse. I am not sure what is the most obvious reason the make is not top? Would that be the floures, or the sym, or both? Or perhaps something else.

Help? This is new to me and I am meeting with the Jeweler today to see if I want to keep the EC or switch to a cushion with a larger ct, but some inclusions.......

Again, thanks for any advice!!!
