I am torn between two diamonds and I would like some help.
I have a H&A diamond with a great ASET image (although the H&A image was not provided) 1.53 Ct H VS2 diamond. The actual picture of the diamond is fantastic (you can see the arrows beautifully). However, when I look at the angles, it technically doesn't have the most ideal numbers (it is close though).
Table 57%
Depth 61.6%
Crown angle 35
Pavillion angle 41
medium to sightly thick faceted 3.5%
HCA score of 2.3 with "very good" throughout the board. Technically however, it doesn't fit the H&A criteria per heartsandarrows.com
There is another H&A diamond40 with great ASET, Idealscope, and H&A images 1.535 Ct J VS2 diamond. All the angles are great with an HCA score of 1.6
Table 56.5
Depth 61.9
Crown Angle 34.8
Pavillion angle 40.8
Here's the kicker. Both are nearly same price. So do I go for the diamond with the better cut (I don't know how negligible or significant that difference would be in regards to how much light it reflects) or the one with 2 grades better color? I cannot see any tint in a H color but I can definitely see the color in a J diamond from the side. However, I'm getting a halo setting that may cover the sides? Honestly, I don't think my fiance-to-be will care either way but it is a dilemma that's been bothering me.
What would you guys pick?
