I have this Asscher cut diamond on hold and want to know if others feel I am getting a good quality diamond for the price:
$5000 - Asscher cut - .93 carats
Clarity SI
Color E
5.94 X 5.75 X 3.61 mm
depth - 62.7%
table - 63%
girdle - thin to slightly thick
polish & symmetry - very good & good
Fluorescence - None
The inclusions are white in color so are not easily visible.
Is this considered an "Ideal Cut" for an Asscher diamond? Is this a good price for this diamond? I want to get the best asscher or square cut emerald for $5000 or under. I was told it is better to go for a higher color grade rather than high clarity if you have to choose in this type of diamond - is that correct, or would it be better to go for a G - VS2 asscher diamond?
