Hi everyone
I just purchased a 2ct for myself and am now helping my brother find a 1ct LGD.
Can someone help me find one similar to the 2ct I got last week?
It was a D VVS2. There are a bunch on LGD but I wasn’t sure which is best.
His budget is around $350 max
Is that possible to find ?
 
I found a beautiful stone within his budget. Let me know when you or he is able to put it on hold or purchase.

Here you go!

 
thank you both!!!!!!!!!!
 
Here are the options that I found:






And if the budget can be splurged on a bit:

question for you! Can stretch it a bit to a max of like 375 as with taxes it will bump up to around $400.
How is this one? I think around 1.3 or 1.4 is a great size but I know you see things that i dont and i want to help him get the best performer he can!


thank you again!

Sorry to ask again but any thoughts on a 1.3 - 1.4 range one? i attached one but wasn't sure. I think 375 is about the cap

Hello, freedom2016!
That particular one has an overly steep crown angle, and it's paired with a steeper pavilion angle, which goes against the inverse relationship: for appeasing the physics of light, the crown angle should move towards steeper and the pavilion angle moves towards shallower (and vice-versa).

Here is a great looking diamond that is pushing the 1.3 carat mark and hits the 7mm mark!

Yep, 58 table is fine...no different than any other table size as long as all the other proportions, the cut precision, and the optics check all the boxes.
