I know the girdle is thick but Jim from JA has assured me this one looks the best of the ones I was looking at:



These were the others I was looking at

 

[Rainman]

And the third option

 

[JulieN]

I'd go with the opinion of the good people at JA. #1 is the one that he picks? Looks good to me.

 

[Rainman]

Yea the first one is the one he thought was the best. Even with the thick girdle

 

[JulieN]

The spread is about right.

 

[Rainman]

these were his words in an email:

""The stone *kills* the other two options. The girdle is a little bit on the thick
side - so what. You''ve traded less than 1/10th of 1 millimeter in spread
for a diamond with incredible brilliance and fire. If you''re like most of
our customers, you put the quality of the cut above all else. If that''s the
case, the .76ct G-VS2 is the way to go..."

 

[Rainman]

The next step is to get the diamond appraised I supposed right? Will they send this to a local appraiser does anyone know?

 

[Rainman]

JulieN: The spread is about right.

How did you figure this anyway? and what is a correct spread?

This would seal the deal for me. JA won''t steer you wrong.

Awesome stone- CONGRATS!

What kind of setting are you putting it in?

 

[Rainman]
