Final choice: what do you think of this RB?

[crease123]

I did some searching around, and found this round brilliant. Please kindly give your opinion:

2.01ct, AGS0, H, SI2 (vendor said its eye-clean)
Depth: 62%
Table: 55.1%
Symmetry/Polish: Ideal/Ideal
Crown Angle: 35.0
Crown Height: 15.7%
Girdle: Faceted, 1.2% to 3.5% (thin to thick)
Pavilion Angle: 40.8
Pavilion Depth: 43.1%
Star Length: 51%
Lower Girdle Length: 78%
Culet: Pointed
Fluorescence: Negligible

Price: $13,833.

Unfortunately, the vendor does not provide Idealscope pictures of the diamond so these measurements are all I''ve got.

what was the cut grade?

 

[crease123]

AGS 0 I think, or ideal cut

Hi crease,

According to my source the thick part of the girdle is actually thin to medium, so thats fine. This diamond shows promise.

Thanks for all the replies. So, for the price, do you guys think I should go ahead and get it, or wait out for a better one

The price is reasonable. If you have been looking for an extended amount of time, then you may want to go with this one. If you just started searching, you could possibly find another 2ct. stone for a little less or with higher clarity. The cut seems promising. I like to see the length, width, depth measurements, myself. It makes it easier to choose when you have all the information about a stone.

Oh sorry, the measurements are: 8.09 x 8.12 x 5.03 mm

Anymore comments will be greatly appreciated!

It looks good. When I checked it on HCA it scored 1.3 (ideally you want a score under 2)

Hi Crease,

It looks good, personally I always prefer to see IS images to confirm but as we can''t get them you could certainly consider this diamond, just make sure the vendor has a good return policy just in case on the rare offchance you decided against this diamond. If the diamond is indeed eyeclean to your standards in a diamond of that size then thats great.
