I''m new around here, so hello everyone...I''m considering the purchase of the following diamond, which is being offered by a local jeweler. I felt comfortable with pursuing it at first, but the girdle stats are really bothering me...should I be overly concerned? The diamond stats follow:
Report: GIA (2002)
Cut: Emerald
Measurements: 8.28 x 6.24 x 4.33mm (1.33 length to width ratio)
Weight: 2.03 carat
Depth: 69.4%
Table: 68%
Girdle: Extremely thin to thick
Culet: none
Polish: VG
Symmetry: VG
Clarity: IF
Color: F
Fluorescene: None
Cash Price: $16,935
The jewelry store gives this stone its highest possible cut rating (I know that the language describing the best possible cut varies). I asked for crown height % and a percentage of variance on the girdle, but the reply was "GIA doesn''t provide this information." What else should I ask? Is this stone a good buy? Help? Oldminer? Leonid? Anyone? Thanks in advance...
