Hi!
I'm on the hunt for an oval or pear, 1ct I-J color, eye clean and of course as sparkly as possible. I've asked GOG for help but without having any ideas about their prices I have a feeling that it will be over my budget, 2800$. This equals 3000$ on JA with all their discounts and I thought I might as well have them check out three stones for me. But which three that is the question?
I know about the numbers for pears and ovals but also that they are just a hint and that you need to see it in person, or at least see images of it. Well JA have a lot of images but I'm not sure would do look for.
Some images are light like this one with a little less contrast

Really light http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/H-SI1-Ideal-Cut-Pear-Diamond-1392627.asp
Some have more contrast http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/J-SI1-Ideal-Cut-Pear-Diamond-1377982.asp
This one is even darker http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/I-SI2-Ideal-Cut-Pear-Diamond-1095699.asp
An extreme http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/I-VS2-Premium-Cut-Pear-Diamond-1191257.asp
I asked JA about and they said it is only because of difference in lighting but should I avoid any of these cases? What else should I look for in the images? Some show more bow ties then others but it is hard to say anything about without several angles.
If you have an example what a good oval or pear looks like, feel free to post it.
Finally are their generally more well cut ovals or pears out there? Is there a better chance for a nice cut by sticking to one of them?
Thanks!
