OEC recut

[kgizo]

I recently purchased a pair of OECs to have set into a bypass ring. Took them to Southwest Diamond Cutters to get cleaned up as they were very well loved and had girdle chips. Weight loss was minimal: 1.59 to 1.54ct and 1.36 to 1.31ct. One was slightly darker under the table than the other and I don’t see that anymore. They are also closer to round than before. It took 3 weeks which was fine for my needs. They offer an “expedited” service if anyone is interested and needs their job sooner. Tagging @Wewechew and @LLJsmom as they are interested in the outcome.
Before:

The “worst” one. Pic is bad, but you can see the issues around the girdle.

GIA report for it. I didn’t get new reports as I don’t plan to sell. I was concerned about putting it in a ring with everything happening around the girdle.

Wow they look great @kgizo, I love how they are picking up the pretty color of the ring box in your photo.
