Jess, we really need detailed photos at least and preferably ASET images if you can get them, ask the vendor. Unfortunately we can't tell much by numbers with Princess shapes. Labels such as Premium cut don't guarantee you a well cut stone unfortunately, so the above info is very valuable if you can get it.

Ditto Lorelei...without reflector images to show performance, stats with fancies (non-rounds) make it hard to assess performance.

Here''s another to consider...

P.S. The 0 from AGS is based on this imputed positive reflector technology, which why I''ve sought diamonds with that characteristic...

Jess, I would definitely take a look at Ira''s selections, he has found some beautiful diamonds there. It is cut quality which gives a diamond its beauty, and those Ira linked have an excellent cut and should be lovely looking stones.

Well it is hard to say jess, without detailed photos and preferably ASET as we mentioned before, it is not really possible to judge the cut of these diamonds, and how well they might perform. You would need to ask the vendor for photos and ASET to be able to get more crucial info on these diamonds.
