Help needed on this diamond

[DiamondFix]

Hi All,

Still on the quest for 'the one" and after looking over the GIA report on this 3.5 carat with my limited knowledge, it looks good - but I thought I'd ask the experts to weigh in. How do you think this would perform compared to ACA? Any comments or concerns? Overall thoughts on this diamond?

I hope to have this narrowed down soon, and I appreciate the help in the meantime. It's been invaluable!

Thanks in advance for any and all feedback.

I'm no expert but the numbers look good. My concern would be the twining wisp grade setting inclusion , you would have to get that vetted if there is any transparency issues. I would also request Aset/Idealscope images for further evaluation.

In general, numbers can give you an idea of how you might like a diamond to perform, the HCA can further enlighten you on predicted performance (as a means to reject a diamond). It can also tell you if a diamond is 'worth further investigation.'

Just remember that a lab report reflects a "wire-frame" of the diamond, and many of the numbers are rounded averages of several measurements. You can find all types of recommendations on PS for a perfect, or near-perfect set of measurements - and that will put you on the right path.,

Ultimately the performance images (ASET or Ideal-Scope) are going to tell you far more than a lab report.

Do you have photos of this diamond?

You really need more images to be able to compare to a vetted stone...H&A, Idealscope, Aset image and up-close images of the stone.
The numbers are fine but they dont really tell enough if you are looking to compare with a vetted stone like an ACA.

Request those images and post when you get them.

Thank you all for your replies...
Here are the latest images of the diamond I received and would love any feedback you could provide. I did check the HCA and it scored a 0.9. I apologize if the images are huge.

Thank you Tyty...I've posted the images
