Hello all, I've been learning and researching for sometime, and narrowed down to two diamonds from James Allen:
Diamond 1:
Carat weight:0.72
Certificate:GIA
Color:G
Shape: Round
Clarity: VVS1
Cut: Excellent
Depth %:61.70
Girdle: Medium - Slightly Thick
Table %:55.00
Culet:None
Polish:Excellent
Crown ∠: 34.50
Symmetry:Excellent
Crown %:0.16
Fluorescence:None
Pavilion ∠:40.80
L/W/D (mm): 5.77*5.75*3.56
Pavilion %: 0.43
HCA score: 1.3
Pice: $3950
Diamond 2:
Carat weight:0.71
Certificate:AGS
Color:H
Shape: Round
Clarity: VS1
Cut: Ideal
Depth %:61.70
Girdle: Thin - Slightly Thick
Table %:55.10
Culet
ointed
Polish:Ideal
Crown ∠: 34.20
Symmetry:Ideal
Crown %:15.30
Fluorescence:None
Pavilion ∠:40.80
L/W/D (mm): 5.73*5.75*3.54
Pavilion %: 43.10
HCA score: 1.1
Pice: $3150
I have requested the IS images and reviews for both diamonds and a third one (not listed here). The feedback is very positive, here are some direct quotes:
"I am happy to let you know that Diamond 1 ($3,950) has the best brilliance, fire, sparkle and the best overall light performance with excellent balance and symmetry! It faces up visibly whitest of the three and is eye-clean."
"Diamond 2 ($3,150) also has excellent overall brilliance and light return with great fire and sparkle throughout! It also faces up the largest of the three and is white and eye-clean."
At this point, I'm having hard time to decide which one to go with. For $800 difference, would you pick 1 over 2 or vice versa?
I would certainly appreciate any advice or comments. Thanks!
