Is this the one?

[LexieBear]

This diamond seems almost perfect... the the exception of the crown angle being a fraction steep.
We've been looking for awhile and so far this is our top pick.
Thoughts? Is there anything else we should be considering?

35% Crown can be great - it's pairing it with Pavilion @ 41 that's the issue...

With 35% Crown you'd ideally want to see 40.7 or 40.8 or 40.6 pav.... and once you have ideal potential ~ look for how precise the cut was executed using images/ ideal scope ~aset scope etc..

Unfortunately I don't love the pic. Looks splintery, likely because high crown and high pav don't play well together

82%ish lgf% == small arrows.
It also means this diamond will have little leakage and good IS/ASET.
It will have a different look however than many are used to.
Its not bad just different.

There really won't be leakage? That's so interesting. I thought there would be given all the black around the very center.

Thanks for clarifying! This definitely isn't a stone i find attractive, but interesting to know it wont leak

Op if you like it then that's what matters. But personally I think you could probably find better

Table reflection.
Much more obvious in pics than in person.
Unless the background is black then black is obstruction of some form.
