How's your color eye?

[KKJohnson]

65% which I am surprised about

 

[MMtwo]

50% for me, yet I know I can sort D,E,F in real life because I've done it before in a shop.

I think what this demonstrates is why colour is graded face down - it is hard to not be distracted by contrast patterns darkening the look of a stone.

True, I thought about that too. A good cut uses light like a concealer.

 

[DiamondGal28]

60% for me too. I find it harder to sort them face up. My average was 40.8 - so all of you PSers good at color are moving the average up!

 

[diamondringlover]

55%

 

[Asscherhalo_lover]

50%. So glad it wasn’t higher. Warmer stones have a lovely price tag, and they’re so pretty.

I can see the color pretty easily, even better in real life, but it doesn't "bother" me My own diamonds are an "L" or a "P" I like em warm

 

[CBPearllover]

60% I agree the middle grade were the most difficult to discern, even with the screen brightness turned up. But that was fun, thanks for sharing this!

 

[Rockcollector]

55%

 

[KaeKae]

35%
Not shocking, I love all my stones, ranging from F to , and don't see big differences in them.
But I'd like to try it again on my desktop, a much bigger screen, and in a room that is much better lit. Maybe tomorrow

yeah- so true. Face up (and well, photographs) is probably not the best guideline...

but yeah- some people probably drove the average up a little. It was 40.XX (something) when I tried it.

 

[natasha-cupcake]

75% for me. I struggled a little in the middle grades. The high and low ends were much easier.

 

[JPie]

40%

 

[MissGotRocks]

I got 70%

 

[Garnetgirl]

I got 60%, which really surprised me. I’m not at all colour sensitive, or maybe I just don’t mind colour in diamonds.

 

[LightBright]

I got 55% average is 41%

 

[the_mother_thing]

You got 45%! The average is 41.1%.

 

[Dancing Fire]

55%

 

[dk168]

42%

DK

 

[CalliopeCladdagh]

70% on my phone while watching TV. I wish I was less colour sensitive...

 

[Bonfire]

50% I agree the midranges were tricky.

 

[TODiamonds]

60%... better than I expected. Even though this exercise is kind of pointless other than to demonstrate how hard it is discern colors when looking face-up.

 

[sparlie]

I can't even enter anything! It does not allow me to click on anything. Anyone know what I am doing wrong? thanks

 

[msop04]

I got 65%, so not that color *aware*... but I knew that.

YAY!! Bigger diamonds for me!! #sizewhore

You have to move the diamond up or down (from more colorless at the top to most tinted at bottom).

 

[msop04]

@missy Could it be the ladies of Pricescope (and gentlemen) are color sensitive <3 ?
This was mine when it started.


@Snowdrop13 I bet your ACA is bright face forward <3

Looks like we're all getting different "averages"... mine said average was 41.4% (maybe they're adjusting as more ppl take the quiz? Looks like PS is increasing it!) LOL

I would imagine it keeps a running total and our merry band of test-takers has changed things a bit.

 

[CoffeeAndDiamonds]

Better than I expected, 45%!

Thank you! As you can see I need all the help I can get! I will try it now

Took it again and got 35% again

By the way, my stones range from F to K. I know, proofread, before hitting "reply"
