Do you have photos of the stone? You really have to see pictures to know. An ASET would be helpful, too!

The main comp I could find is this ideal cut from Brian Gavin but it is VS1 instead of SI1. Personally, I'd rather have the one from Brian Gavin because the cost is only slightly more. I think the shallow crowns on the 60-60 type stone might make it more prone to chipping. I just know there was one on here lately in that situation. You get more spread, but that comes with the shallower crown. I like the side view of a crown that is 34+.

(Oh, maybe your price was including settings. In that case, the stone itself might be a good bit less than this one.)
