Any experts please help! I just found what I consider a very fiery and briliant diamond in my size and price range. However I am pretty concerned because I had previously only looked at GIA or AGS stones, but this is an EGL certificate (USA).
Like I said it looked great to me, but my soon to be fiancee who has been helping me throughout the process wants me to make the final decision - meaning she doesn''t want to see any more diamonds until one is on her finger.
Any advice as to what I may be missing here is very much appreciated! (Naturally I will get it appraised as soon as I buy it but I would feel safer with some expert opinions before I take the plunge...)
The specs of the diamond are as follows:
EGL Cert
Ideal Cut
1.55 carat
E Color
SI2 (basically eye clean although one feather on outside of table that I could see after I knew where it was and really really stared!)
Table - 59%
Depth - 61.3%
Crown Angle - 33.8
Pavillion Angle - 41
Polish and Symmetry - Very Good
Price with platinum solitaire setting: 8400 (seemed amenable to negotiation)
