Greetings
Well, I have happened upon you folks at the end of this process, so we'll see what becomes of it. I just received (as in, today) the stone i bought from Brilliant Earth. I can't tell if it's buyer's remorse or if i'm not impressed....I was going to take it to a local and have it looked at.
Going in, my requirements were Princess, .7 - .9ct, F-H color, VS1 - SI1 clarity. Best cut possible. Must be certified from Canada.
Here's what I ended up with:
Canada Goose Natural Diamond
Princess Cut
0.76ct
Measurements: 4.87 x 4.81 x 3.74mm
SI-1 ('eye clean')
F Color
Cut "Very Good"
Depth: 77.8%
Crown: 47.6 degrees, 16.60%
Pavilion: 39.40 degrees, 57.40%
Table: 62.90%
Girdle: medium
Culet: none
price: $3030.00 (US)
The Grading report is by GemScan (says GS laboratories on the cert). Signed by a guy who say he's a "Graduate Gemologist - GIA"
Any comments? I'm beginning to wonder if I bought too soon. It does have a return policy for about a month. it is also in a setting where the diamond is pretty flush with the top, so is that impacting the light reflection? I'll try and take a pic if I can find my camera battery charger. A picture of the setting is attached (not mine, from their site)
thanks
