Hi all,
Long time lurker, first time poster. I'm 99% sure I've found my diamond. I've been married 8 years and am replacing the very modest ring I bought her in college. Here it is:
Cut/Clarity/Color: Princess/F/VS2 (GIA cert)
Weight: 1.24 c
WxL: 5.89x6.27 (1.06 ratio)
Total Depth: 4.12mm or 69.9%
Pavil Depth: 3.43mm or 58.2%
Pavil Ang: 57.9 degrees
Crown Height: .52mm or 8.8%
Crown Ang: 33.1 degrees
Table Size: 4.00mm or 67.9%
Girdle: .12mm or 2.0%
According to the AGA chart on princesses, this is a 1B or high 2A. I've seen Mr. Atlas refer to these charts as a way to ensure a good diamond in that if you get a high quality diamond according to these #'s, it will probably look good.
So.....how important do you think it is that I still send it off to him for an appraisal? I don't want to take an unnecessary risk or shortcut for something that really doesn't cost much, just wondering.
Lastly, I'll ask the obligatory question....do you guys think this is a good one. I know I'm pretty confident, and the price seems to be pretty competitive to a pricescope search: $5935
Thanks for listening, and more importantly, for all the great educational stuff here. It's helped me make my decision....probably
