Hi guys!

Is this a good diamond for its price? I asked for an ASET image but it seems like that's not really a thing for lab diamonds. I also understand that it's certified by IGI which means that the diamond might not be as good as it's graded on paper.

Thank you all!!
 
Not loving this one. The cut doesn't look great. What is your desired budget, size, color, etc?
 
Thanks for your reply! When you say that the cut doesn't look great, is that from the video or from the numbers I provided? I'd love to know what I missed!

I'm looking for a round diamond around 3.5-4.5k, 1.3-1.4ct, color d (being a bit of a perfectionist here, but E is fine too), VS2+ clarity. Let me know if you'd like me to elaborate on anything else.

From the video. It's just not my favorite overall. I'll take a look.
 
You'll need to request the cert from james allen, but going by looks I like this one


And heres a solid choice in a D color

Another nice D color
 
Could just be the lighting environment, or me, but I see some warmth? If you told me it was an GHI stone, I'd believe it. They don't have the iciness of the D's in @lovedogs ' links. Nor the brilliance :kiss2:
