I have enjoyed reading this forum as a lurker for quite some time, and I appreciate everyone's input.
Now, however, my time to make a decision approaches, and so I propose, hehe, this question:
I have viewed a HRD certification emailed to me with the following information: 2.19 carats; Clarity SV2; Color rare white (G); fluor - nil; girdle 2.5% (I think - this was blurry); culet pointed; table width - 60%; crown height 15%; pavilion depth, 43.6%; finish very good, proportion very good. (I have been advised by the merchant that the depth percentage is 61%)
My questions are these: If pavilion angle and crown angle are so important, how have the Europeans made due without same? Is it possible to extrapolate brilliance and fire, et cetera with only these criteria? Are there any detrimental numbers here? (Although if a majority of you give thumbs up I will send the stone to an appraiser) What would be the internet ball park value for this?
I would appreciate anyone's input.
Thank you!
