Newby to diamonds. Info on square cut diamond.

[Darktone]

Hi everyone! I do know a little bit about diamonds- probably just enough to get myself in trouble though. I saw a blue square cut diamond ring on the web I thought looked really neat and thought it would make me a nice wedding ring. I really don't know too much about this cut and was hoping someone here could tell me about it and it's good points and I guess bad points too. Also how big is this .48 carat diamond in centimeters? Thanks!

I am sure that is an irradiated diamond. I'd stick with a natural diamond if it was for me.

Yes. It is an irradiated diamond. How much does a natural one cost verses man made? Price is a big object for me.

if you don't mind irradiated I would definitely go with that option, as a natural blue diamond is very expensive.

Thank. I am really interested in knowing about this cut as well and how many facets are in it and how well it sparkles.

 

[slg47]

we really have no information to judge that.

Thanks. I just wish I had more info. I ended up buying it for $1,800. Hope I did not do too bad.
