I thought I did enough diamond research, but apparently not. This is the diamond I''m thinking about purchasing:
Carat: 0.7
Girdle - Thin to Thick, faceted
Culet - None
Polish - Good
Symmetry - Good
Color - H
Florescence - None
Clarity - VS1
5.6x5.64x3.5
Table % - 60
Depth % - 62.3
Pavilion Depth - 42.6%
Crown Depth - 13.7%
Pavilion Angle - 40.7
Crown Angle - 33.2
The proportions really confuse me because the only way they would add up to the total depth percentage if if the girdle thickness was 6%.
I emailed Fred Cuellar on the diamond and he said it was an off make because the depth was more than 61%, but AGS considers anything under 63% ideal...what gives???
The price of the stone, with the report is $2,400. Is this a good stone? Is this a good price?
I was also concerned about the H color. I didn''t really notice any color until the jeweler put it next to an E stone. I want a platinum setting, will it work?
Also is it bad that the polish and symmetry are only good? I''ve heard that you can''t tell the differences between good and excellent with the naked eye.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks so much
