I am by no means a diamond expert and cannot evaluate value-for-price, however the specs you list suggest that the diamond is somewhat deeply cut (with depth % greater than 63%, diameter less than 6.5mm, and thick girdle). I know from personal experience that a deep diamond does not look as large as it is...I have a 1.08ct stone with about 63% depth and medium to thick girdle, and it is smaller than many 1.00 carat stones (ideal cuts span about 6.5mm, I believe)...just a consideration.

For looks you might like to compare the prices with .95ct diamonds - as Asue has told you it can not be well cut.

You can compare the price yourself with a search by entering the #'s into the search page.
