My 1.20 Princess Cut arrived and it looks great but I just wanted yalls opinion.
First the GIA stats:
1.2 / H / VVS1
5.94 x 5.76 x 4.44
Depth: 77.1
Table: 69
Girdle: Medium to Slightly Thick
Cutlet: None
Polish: Very Good
Symmetry: Excellent
Fluorescence: None
When comparing the diamond to other diamonds online, I couldn''t find any there were close to the depth but still maintained the other dimensions at the same carat weight. But when I found the post below in an older thread it made me think it was a really good find. A gemologist did look at the diamond and rave about it so that was a plus, it also did see a Sarin machine during the process but I do not have the file.
"If you look at depth, I think that you are missing the most important point. Today, too many people are thinking that they should get a lower depth, while they should try to get a higher depth. In my journal-article, I have shown that 75% depth in princesses actually is around 63%, if one would calculate in the same way as in rounds. A depth of 65% is in this way actually 53%. Would anyone consider a round stone with a depth of 53%? Also, from our experience in cutting AGS-0''s, we see that most of these stones have a depth of around 78%.
I would like to tell more right now, but I have to run. I will be back later today.
Live long,
