Is this a good diamond?

[disneymom]

Hi,

I found a diamond that I like but am desperately in need of expert advice. It's a 3.01 H SI1 HCA: 1.6 eye clean. I plan on making it into a solitaire ring. Please take a look and let me know what your thoughts are on it.

Thank you so much!

That's a beautiful stone! Very clean, even for a SI-1.

Thank you! Any other comments? I'm about to make my decision next week.

I'm not the biggest fan of the high fluorescence. Did they check the stone to make sure it doesn't appear milky or hazy? Besides that, it is a true beauty. Very clean

Only with a loupe I was able to detect a slight difference of the diamond being less crisp when comparing it to a non fluorescence diamond. But just by looking at it I wasn't able to tell under their office light. I am going to see it one more time (under natural sunlight) before making my final decision.

Is there certain environments that I should test the diamond under to see how it reacts to light? Thanks!

I actually adore the fluorescence as long as it is not having a negative impact.


Here's the thing. Take it in to your local Hearts on Fire dealer and compare it with other stones to see how crisp it is in comparison to their stones.

If you are still happy with it, you are good to go.
