Flourescence???

[chicagoillinois]

Is flourescence good, bad, or just a matter of opinion?

Fluorescence isn''t a good or bad thing. It really depends on your preference.

do a search on fluorescence and fluorescent and i think you will find the information you are looking for.

which way are you leaning?

To be honest, I haven''t seen the difference in person, just read it on GIA reports. From what I read on Pricescope, it sounds like a "medium blue" fluorescence could be nice. Especially if I get down to an "H/I" colored emerald-cut diamond.

try to look at strong ones too.

I have a D with Med blue, and I love the way it looks. It is icy white under most lighting, and has a slight bluish/violet look in bright sunlight. Try to see some in person to see if it is a look you like.
