Yes, it''s a Portuguese brilliant. The cut looks fabulous - no hesitations about that. A lot of PSers have been disappointed by how dark his stones are IRL, compared to his pics. And yes, I guess I am mulling it over. It''s slightly smaller than I had hoped for, though.Date: 6/6/2009 7:35:35 PM

since I don''t have any of his stones, just from the ones everyone else have, I think his pictures don''t do his stones IRL justice... Are you thinking of getting it? it looks beautifully cut.. is it portuguese?? Someday I would love to get one of those cut. That looks like it would be such a beautiful shade IRL.

And is it just me, or is it a sloooooow night on PS?
Yeah, I''ve been trolling through that thread. I did ask him if he had any other pics - just haven''t heard back from him yet. I guess it is Saturday night.Date: 6/6/2009 7:54:02 PM

If you look at the later pics in the picture thread, his recent pictures have been much closer. Someone talked to him about it and he changed some settings. The most recent very close one was someone''s blue-green stone, a present for her mom.
Just ask him how close the pic is to the actual stone.
It''s 1.27cts, 7.12mm.Date: 6/6/2009 7:57:21 PM

Great cut and pretty color! What size is it?
Yes, I was surprised about this too. Even Dan mentioned that it turned out smaller than he''d hoped. I''m still waffling about getting this one. My DH likes the cut, but I''ve already got 2 pink stones and an umbalite on the way.Date: 6/6/2009 9:44:07 PM

Wow the rough was over 8ct and the finish product is just over 1cts. The gem looks really nice and the cutting appeals to me more than most of the other stones on his website. Hope it''s as great in real life.
I can relate to the too many pink stones comment.Date: 6/6/2009 10:08:59 PM

What have you decided?
Well, I went to bed last night thinking I''d pass on this one, since I already have a stone from Gene and a customized LOGR setting coming this week. Then I woke up this morning and decided I''d get it after all - I thought I''d regret it otherwise. SapphireLover is fully entitled to give me angry-faced or pouty emoticons.

Well, I think it is a very pretty stone, I hope it is just as pretty in person.
