Hi All,
In relation to RB stones, just wondering about Hearts and Arrows diamonds, simple question, can you notice the difference between HnA and an ideal cut stone that is not HnA? As we cannot see the hearts and arrows without the viewer, i guess what we can compare is the visual difference between the stones. So as a broad generalisation, when I went to compare a HnA to a normal ideal cut stone, I couldn't tell any difference between them, thus I would say that the difference is minimum between HnA and normal ideal cut stones. So for me then, I cannot see value in paying more for something I cannot appreciate.
Given the way these HnA are being marketed, I must be missing something. I have assumed the following:
-HnA stones are consistently a better light performing stone in general compared to normal ideal cut stones
-HnA stones can be more appreciated as the size of the diamond gets bigger
-HnA stones are more of a mindclean feature where the fact that the cut is so symmetrical makes you feel good
-HnA stones may only be relatively better performing stones than ideal cut stones but the price reflects the time, cost and effort for that extra few bits of perfection
For discussion, would anyone clarify any of the above and perhaps pass on their opinion on whether they would pay more for a HnA stone and if so under what circumstance?
This will be very insightful for me and I hope it will help me in making my purchase decision. Thank you.
