Medium culet on a cushion

[portia]

Hello all.....

Yet another question (boyfriend using the account this time), should we be concerned about the culet being MED on this cushion cut stone?

depth: 66.7%
table: 56%
culet: med
polish: EX
symmetry: EX

Thanks!

many of the ''older'' cuts have an open culet and you will notice it. i think it looks cool if it is in an antique setting. what is the color of the stone?

Belle...

I''m not exactly sure what you mean by "open" culet. This stone was just certified in August of this year, so can one make the assumption that it is a newer stone? As far as the color, the flour. is listed as FAINT.

Thanks!

you won't see it at all ...right belle?

The stone is an E I think...and you won't see the faint flourescence either.

MMM....

You are right, it is an E. We are asking so many questions about this stuff!

We are planning a second visit to the store on Sat. and plan on taking some photos; maybe we can post some here.



Belle...

When you say "older" cut; what exactly do you mean?

Cheers....

Hi Portia''s boyfriend

Is the cushion a rectangular or square? What is the measurements, ie the lenth and width of the stone?

Hello Maya....

Your ring is very beautiful!

The cushion that we are looking at has the following Specs:

GIA
1.92 ct
E
VS1
Polish - EX
Sym - EX
depth - 66.7 %
table - 56 %
flour - faint
culet - med
girdle - med - slightly thick, faceted
Cushion Brilliant
7.89 x 7.20 x 4.80 mm

So....I guess that makes it rectangular...sort of?

Cheers....
