J Color - Princess Cut

[jarbatz]

Anyone have a J that doesn''t look yellow? WF has an ACA that is $1000 less than an I ACA.

Jarbatz, I''ve seen several well-cut J-colored princess stones; none of them looked yellow. I have one that''s a bit shy of .75, and I don''t notice any body color in looking at it in real life. The only time I really notice any body color is in pictures; the camera captures color more than the eye does.

The only way to know if you''re tolerant is to really see one yourself. I had the same concerns, but in person, I wasn''t sensitive to body color.

Funny you should ask about this Jarbatz!
One of my friends just bought a 0.63J VS2 ES princess from WF and had it star set in a pendant. I have been meaning to start a thread in SMTR but have been very busy. So here is one pic to hold you over until I get a second to do the thread. I can''t detect any body color in real life. I think it is quite pretty.....I''m just jealous that I don''t have on too!!

KT, that pendant is so pretty! I am in love with it. Please post more photos of it in SMTR.

Based on that photo, I think a J princess is certainly possible!

This is my J princess... I don''t think it looks yellow at all. Although from the side I can detect a slight warmth when it is right next to an equal sized RB of a higher color. But noone is every looking that hard at it.

Check out this link to see more pics of my ering, next to my g-h eternity band. I really can''t see a difference in color between the two.

My solitaire also has a "faint" florescence, but I think I''ve heard it has to be medium florescence (sp?) for it to improve the appearance color of the stone.

mia1181, that is beautiful! I think well cut J princesses are proving to be awesome!

Yeah my honey did such a great job shopping for it! He really did his homework and the cut really makes the difference. Its like 3 years old (geez I should probably be able to remember when I was engaged, huh?) and I still get compliments on it all the time!
