Link to diamond that I purhcased

[bigterpsfan]

Is it possible to tell from this picture if the diamond that I purhcased is true H and A diamond? If so, is it? If not I won't be disappointed the diamond is fantastic. Thanks!

PS - Paid $14,600 for it, but not from James Allen

Doesn't look like it is. The arrow heads don't line up with the shafts. Pretty stone, though.

No, if you do not see a Hearts image from a H&A viewer, you cannot tell if it has good optical symm just from the Arrows image.

 

[bigterpsfan]

So are we saying that it is def not H&A because the hearts and shafts dont line up or that this image might not be true representation? Are there some people that will only buy H&A diamonds?

 

[stone-cold11]

Yap, there are people who will only buy H&A and are willing to pay a premium for it.

H&A guidelines for WF.

Thanks Stone! Just to be clear, were you saying in your earlier post that we cannot tell if this stone is heart and arrows based on the image I posted? Or are we saying that this image rules our hearts and arrows for this stone?

 

[stone-cold11]

The image is not well taken, so cannot comment on the arrows and there is no hearts image.

 

[Amys Bling]

since there is no H&A image posted, it is just speculation as to whether or not it is hearts and arrows.

 

[bigterpsfan]

I don't believe i is, because usually James Allen will indicate if it is heart and arrows...Oh well, I am still very happy with it.

you can have a beautiful sparkly diamond without H&A.

JA's H&A is their in-house stone. Other stones are from the virtual inventory, which this is one of them, could be H&A but will not be sold as such.
