Need help with analyzing ASET and idealscope image

[justin_m]

Hello All. Can someone look at these images and let me know your opinion?

I have attached the ASET image of a diamond and I''d like some advice on the green patterns. The center of the diamond seems green when a lot of others i''ve seen is red (most light return). Also, the blue patterns seem different (the center arrows look darker than the outer arrows). Are these traits desireable in a diamond? Is there too much light leakage?

I will post the idealscope image in a reply.

Thanks in advance!

And here is the idealscope image....


Is there too much light leakage in this one?

Nothing to worry about. Many really well cut stones show a green center in ASET. The overall patterning and look is what is important. Also, the blue patterns seem different (the center arrows look darker than the outer arrows). This is just a result of the photo setup. Once again nothing to worry about. Are these traits desireable in a diamond? Is there too much light leakage? Definitely not. The ASET and IS images are excellent, it should be a great performing diamond.

Thanks in advance!

Great Question!!
I am glad you asked because I have wondered about similar ASET images.
Hopefully we will get some good replies

Ditto Jet and it looks like a superb diamond.

Looks good to me.

Thanks everyone!

If the diamond is properly aligned in the scope it means the pavilion angle is under ~40.75

Computer generated ASET at 40.75 degrees pavilion
