Hey everyone!
I've been studying up on diamonds for a few months now but how deep into the detail of the actual diamond is necessary? I've already made the following 12 decisions listed below on the type of diamond I am interested in purchasing.
Shape = Round
Carat Weight = 0.82 - 0.90
Clarity = IF - FL
Color = D
Cut = Excellent
Cutlet = None
Depth = 58-62
Fluorescence = None
Girdle = Thin - Slightly Thick
Polish = Excellent
Symmetry = Excellent
Table = 53-60
That said, now that I'm in the purchasing phase I started looking at the actual GIA certificates & now I see things such as Crown Angle & Height, Pavillion Angle & Depth, Star Length, & Lower Half. Are these things important for me to understand as well?
