the diameter is too small. a well cut 1.51ct stone should be closer to 7.50mm.

As you have seen the diamond and like it then it could be an option, but the cut quality isn''t good it seems. The diamond is very deep and the Holloway Cut Advisor couldn''t calculate due to this diamond possibly having a very thick girdle. Also as DF says it will look too small for it''s weight, buy a 1.5 carat you want it to look it''s weight. Study up on the tutorials for the best proportions for a well cut diamond then keep looking is my advice and take your time. Appraisal values are always much higher than the price you pay for the diamond, this is usual and doesn''t mean you are getting a higher value diamond at a bargain price.
