I am a newbie and have been reading the guidance on ideal proportions.
I am interested in 2 diamonds for ring. Appreciate your opinions and suggestions on how to choose a better diamond.
Would you put more weight on CA/PA or a better HCA score (1-2)?
Btw, the 2nd one is a little bigger seems a better deal but I don't know if the CA 35.5/PA 40.6 will work, plus the Depth is a little out of the range too.
Thank you!!
