Hello, can you please help me evaluate this diamond: https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-di...-color-vs1-clarity-excellent-cut-sku-16767308
Is it a decent 1 ct. diamond for the price ($4900) for someone with a budget of approximately $5000? Is there a better 1 ct. (requirement) diamond within $300 of this currently available? I know this doesn't have the most ideal cut, it gets an HCA score of 2.2 with a bigger table and has strong blue fluorescence. But for someone with practically no diamond experience, is this "good enough" for an engagement ring diamond set on platinum, meaning will it likely look pretty enough with marginal to no perceptible quality degradation for an average person (especially if not placed next to a higher quality diamond)? thanks!
Factor Grade
Light Return: Very Good
Fire: Very Good
Scintillation: Very Good
Spread: Very Good
HCA Score : 2.2 - Very Good - Worth buying if the price is right
