Hello all,
With my newly acquired and very basic diamond education, I am finding it difficult to decide between the following two stones:
1- 1.20 CARAT K-VVS1 GIA
6.88-6.90 x 4.14
GIRDLE: Medium - Slightly Thick
DEPTH %: 60.20
TABLE %: 58.00
CULET: None
CERTIFICATE: GIA
CROWN ∠: 33.50
CROWN %: 13.50
PAVILION ∠: 40.80
CUT: Excellent
POLISH: Excellent
SYMMETRY: Excellent
FLUORESCENCE: Medium
Clarity characteristics: feather (1 very small feather is noted on the report, no other comment)
This would give HCA EX and AGA 1B ratings
2- 1.23 CARAT J-VVS2 GIA
6.92 - 6.96 x 4.20 mm
GIRDLE: Medium
DEPTH %: 60.6
TABLE %: 57.00
CULET: None
CERTIFICATE: GIA
CROWN ∠: 34.0
CROWN %: 14.50
PAVILION ∠: 40.6
CUT: Excellent
POLISH: Excellent
SYMMETRY: Excellent
FLUORESCENCE: None
Clarity characteristics: Needle, feather, cloud, the largest of which is to the side (close to but not reaching the girdle), with the following additional comment: Additional clouds are not shown. Pinpoints are not shown.
This would give EX rating in both HCA and AGA.
I am hoping the experts on this forum would help me decide. The second one is slightly more expensive but still within my budget.
