Can someone comment on the depth of OEC or hybrid stype? My understanding was that OECs are typically cut deeper as they should have small table and >40 crown angle. The diamond of GIA # 2195395794 has a table size of 58% and a depth of 54%. This is not a typical OEC or hybrid. Correct me if I am wrong.
IMO, table size can be personal preference. It seems like many PSers aim for around 50%. A depth of 54% would give me pause, but you have to trust your eyes so if the OP saw it and liked it then I would trust her eyes as long as she has seen it in non jewelry store lighting.

And here’s an old post from an expert about shopping for OECs:
