Hello everyone! Need your expert opinion again please!! I've attached the diamond image, ASET and IS images and would like to know if the slight leakage will be very noticeable? Also, what do you generally think of the stone?

Specs are:
G, VS2
T: 56
D: 61.9
CA: 34.5
PA: 40.8
Fl: Strong Blue (not milky/hazy)

Not terrible, but there is some good light leakage under the table. Depending on your want list, not sure if I'd settle. Certainly not a bad stone though.

I don't think something that looks 'like' that would be 'good light leakage'.
Can't comment on that specific stone though. I'll let the prosumers chime in.

I hope you can see the stone in person, get vendor feedback and/or see a video. I think that ultimately, beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

You won't be able to see that very tiny amount of leakage. I think it looks fine.

Thanks everyone! PB, I'm seeing the stone tomorrow so we'll see how it performs! I intend to compare it to the stone I previously posted about.

DS, do you prefer this one over the other? Thanks!! :wavey:

THIS ONE based on paper. Higher color and clarity and FLUOR :love: :love: :love:

If it isn't obvious by now, I'm a "Fluor whore" :naughty:

Thanks, Gypsy! So I shouldn't be concerned about the leakage? This is for my ering upgrade and it's fairly large so I want to make sure it's a stunner! :naughty:

No, I agree with DS, the leakage isn't enough to be concerned about. The stone looks much cleaner than the last one and appears well balanced.

Appreciate it!! This search is admittedly making me a bit paranoid and over analytical :oops: :wall: I'm still also always debating whether the hunt is worth it or if I should go for a smaller super ideal! Thanks for the reassurance...I need it!!

I wouldn't go smaller. But, that's me.

It's roughly 3 1/4 cts....don't want to give the exact specs so it's not snatched from under me! :)

A couple more compared with the previous H SI1 stone which I eliminated today because I noticed it wasn't as crisp as I would like.

Looks really REALLY nice. I think it's a winner. How did you feel?

Thanks!! :bigsmile: I LOVED it! It's really white and very, very clean and all the facets are super crisp! The arrows are clearly defined and since it has a lower half of 75, they're nice and chunky. Not overblue at all or milk or hazy under UV light but my DH did ask if all the blue in the pictures was the fluorescence and I actually don't know if it's that or a reflection of something in the environment or just the fire it has! I have a video that I took and I wish I could figure out how to upload it somewhere to post on here. :doh:

I think the blue is the diamond reflecting something in the environment - I see it being picked up and reflected in both diamonds. Any folks around with blue tops?

I would think the same PB but in the second picture (where you could see the wooden floors), I was turned around by myself with white walls, no spotlighting! And I had a very neutral nude colored blouse on yesterday for that exact reason! So I'm not sure lol!

Hi ac117 :wavey:

Now that you found a stone you love, what are your plans? Will you keep your existing ER? Is this an upgrade trade-in?
