Hello Pricescopers !
I've been voraciously reading this forum to learn about diamonds before we make a purchase. I have searched for many hours trying to find the "one". I think I may have found something that has significant promise. What are your thoughts on this one? I realize that the crown angle is steeper than recommended (35.5 vs 34-35), so I am not sure if this will have a negative impact on the diamond. I have requested ASET/idealscope images from a vendor so hopefully this can help.
The HCA score is 1.3 with everything excellent except for the spread, which is VG. I am also wondering if the inclusions would negatively impact the diamond (visually and structurally)?
Stats are as follows (sorry for the caps, I copy and pasted ):
SHAPE: ROUND
WEIGHT: 1.31 CT.
CUT: EXCELLENT
CLARITY: SI1
COLOR: F
FLUOR: STRONG BLUE
POLISH: EXCELLENT
SYMMETRY: EXCELLENT
SIZE: 7.01 x 6.96 x 4.35 mm
DEPTH 62.3%
PAV. DEPTH: 42.5%
TABLE: 55.0%
GIRDLE: MEDIUM TO SLIGHTLY THICK
CROWN HEIGHT: 16.0%
CROWN ANGLE: 35.5°
PAVILION ANGLE: 40.6°
I am in Canada so I would like to do my due diligence before purchasing to avoid returning diamonds since then we lose on the exchange rate. I have found this diamond at three vendors and the price ranges from USD $7300 to $8300.
Thanks so much for your input, it is greatly appreciated!
