GIA ‘Round Brilliant’ Report from 2011–Critique Requested

[Mrsz1ppy]

I am still in the return period for this diamond. I would like feedback from the community. I had an oec M VS2 and wanted a better color grade. This is a J VS2. What about the cut?

 

[Mrsz1ppy]

Here’s a video. Not sure why the quality is so terrible.

Oh I saw a gorgeous stone cut very similarly to this stone last month. Looks like it missed being graded as a Circular Brilliant because of the length of the star facets.

How is it under the table? Does it stay bright most of the time? The faceting pattern looks pretty.

I have a small oec that goes dark under the table which bugs me.

It does stay/ bright

Bump! More help, please!

This is a very interesting stone that is similar to some I have been doing some virtual research on.
Near 40 degree crown with a 40 degree pavilion.
They are very interesting and suffer on systems like ASET because of the broken contrast model.
If to you it is over dark it should be a pleasantly bright fiery stone.
Symmetry is only good but given the girdle numbers on the report it is probable that is had some work done sometime in the past.

A big question is how big is the cavity and where is it at?

 

[Karl_K]

Another question is what is going on in this area?

You have a good eye. With my loupe, I see a small chip there.

so its been damaged since the grading report.
That is grounds for requiring a new report prior to purchase.

Thank you for looking at the stone. I’m not sure about where the cavity is from the report and I don’t see it in the stone. I’ve now missed my return window, so I guess I’ll love the imperfections. It’s a big improvement in color.

Good to know.

It's a huge gorgeous ring. I hope you do love it.

You know, I do. We are still in the getting acquainted stage. Thank you.
