Hi everyone!
I'm new to this forum and I don't know if it's allowed or not. If it's not I hope you'll tell me how to get the help I need.
I'm planning to propose and I've educated myself in diamonds (I think).
My girlfriend has very small hands I don't know the correct size but I'll find out soon enough. I'd guess her size has a maximum of 4, but more likely it's 3,5 or 3,75. I'm not from the US so we have different sizes.
What I'm looking for is a 0.7-0.85 ct stone, with VS1-VS2 clarity, F-H in color and AGS Ideal / GIA Excellent cut.
The clarity, color and carat are secondary to the other parameters here.
I'd have no issues with a "perfect" diamond that's 0.7 ct VS2 in clarity and H in color. So the cut and the parameters that make the super ideal cut are far more important.
I know that excellent and ideal cuts doesn't guarantee a great diamond so I'm also using the HCA tool on this site to get a score under 2 with Excellent in fire, scintillation and brilliance.
Also I've checked the angles and all the other parameters with this site:
http://www.heartsandarrows.com/hearts-arrows-diamond-ideal-cut-dna.aspx
So I talked to an online site her in Sweden and asked about a stone they had. See GIA Report:
https://www.gia.edu/report-check?reportno=2287063013
I've looked up every parameter and it falls within "Bold H&A" which means best examples of H&A-diamonds.
It also has a HCA score of 1.3. In summary this diamond ticks all the right parameters to make the perfect diamond for me.
It's also a VS1 and 0.76 carats which is really good.
The problem is that the site has very limited info on this particular stone. There's no H&A/IdealScope/ASET picture only a "real-life 3D". http://www.feedcenter.net/files/151/images/redirect/view.asp?id=696557
And this is my problem. I'm not experienced enough to see if this is good enough. All the examples I've seen on really good diamonds have had "Black arrows". I can see the arrows on this stone but they're not black or unicolored.
So final question, is it a splendid stone as the parameters suggest or is it a rare occasion where every parameter is right but the diamond is not?
If this is not the stone I'll just have to look further and bother you guys some more
Sorry for the long post, I hope you experts can help me out!

K
