I am vetting two diamonds and would appreciate feedback. Please see key metrics -- both are VS2 and H Color

Diamond 1:
2.41 carats; 8.74mm x 8.76mm x 5.20mm; 1.3 HCA score; 60% table, 59.4% depth, 33% crown angle, 41% pavilion angle; Gemex report - high/very high Brilliance, very high fire and very high sparkle; small cloud on table but eye-clean

If these are your only choices, I'd take the second. I don't think you want a table percentage to be larger than the depth. The second one has better images, even though the crown angle is lower.

#1 is quite painted. #2 crown is too shallow for my liking.

Overall I'd probably go with #1.
 
thanks for the feedback
