I know color is not graded face up, but just guess that is the difference of color between these diamonds. How many grades apart are they and which is the whitest? Pictured near window on a cloudy day.

All stones are graded by GIA. Emeralds have no fluorescence and the cushion has faint fruorescence.

I always look at the sides (side view) to see color.

These are always fun threads - but differences in angles of photography, and even settings on the monitors for different individuals can really come into play. But I hope people participate for the fun of it all!

The cushion looks J/K to me. The emeralds G/H.

Just my 2c. :D

Wow, this shows me how bad I am at distinguishing color! To me the cushion looks much whiter than the emeralds!

Heh - I'm not doing a happy dance yet; it was just my suspicion, but it's entirely likely I'll be completely wrong, too! :) To me, the emeralds look more glassy and from the first picture it looks like there might be a TINY bit of a tint in the upper facets of the cushion.

Of course, I say all this and maybe it turns out the cushion is a much whiter color, so who knows. ;-)

The emeralds are both E and the cushion is K. My eyes are picking color the same as in these photos and I was quite surprised that the _relative_ difference is not bigger. They are 5 color grades apart!
