Is this considered an ideal cut diamond?

Table is on the large side and crown is on the shallow side.

Hi Stone-cold11,

How does it affect the appearance of the diamond? Is it a diamond with lots of fire & brilliance?

The diamond will show more in the way of brilliance than fire to to the table size and crown angle, still looks like a good diamond but it will have a slightly different ' flavour' to a stone with more ' balanced' angles. The depth is on the shallow end also which isn't necessarily an issue and we have images which show the diamond has potential, I forgot to ask earlier what is the girdle thickness please? I would just like to check this due to the crown angle to make sure the girdle isn't too thin.

Ditto Lorelei.

That should be fine, thank you.
