Need help buying a new rock!

Hi, looking for a ring for my girl and must admit I have very limited idea about what to get! I found this diamond online and was wondering what people thought of it. Any help would be amazing!

It's a tad deep and the crown angle is a bit high.

Use these ranges

Table 54-58
Depth 60-62.3
Crown 34-35
Pavilion 40.6-41

You can also use the hca tool to eliminate stones. Looks for stones to score 2 or less. After that you can request an ideal scope. Post the image for comments.

I personally like the ranges tyty posted, but I wanted to add that the greater depth can result in the stone facing up smaller than it should. For example, a well cut 1.0 ct stone should face up in the 6.4mm range. It makes it much easier to search on JA if you add the advanced search and at least put in the max depth and max table size. From there you just have to look at angles and how the stone looks on the video.

A lot depends on what you are after. If you want a diamond that looks bigger, sparkles brighter, perfect hearts and arrows and will make you smile, look no further than Crafted By Infinity. Make use of their see it to believe it policy and compare it with JA stones.
