Girdle????

[Girlno9]

Hi, I am purchasing a princess cut diamond. was on forum earlier but forgot to ask.....is a medium to thick girdle better to have than a medium to very thick. The setting will be very similar but not quite to a tension setting? Any advice greatly appreciated

If all else is equal, I prefer a medium to thick, than a medium to very thick on ANY diamond.

If the girdle of a Diamond is of even thickness all around (medium vs. medium to thick)..., its a sign the Diamond was cut with a correct balance.

Thank you! Just when I think I have made my decision I see something else than confuses me!! I was looking at 3 diamonds on james allens site. Item 1063219, 976276 and 859915. and am leaning towards 1063219 (which someone seconded on this forum!)
