Gurus, I would appretiate your opinion on those diamonds for stud earrings.

1.
Shape ACA
Carat 0.71
Color H
Clarity SI1
Measurements 5.78-5.80X3.49
Table % 57.4
Depth % 60.4
Polish Ideal
Symmetry Ideal
Girdle Thin to Medium Faceted
Culet Pointed
Fluorescence Negligible
HCA = 1.1

2.
Shape ACA
Carat 0.713
Color H
Clarity VS2
Measurements 5.70-5.73x3.52
Table % 56.8
Depth % 61.6
Polish Ideal

Do I have to worry that depths do not match closely?

Someone? Anyone? I am probably very unpatient :)


Would the difference in depths bother you? Do I have to look harder for better matching stones?

Diamond 1 Measurements 5.78-5.80X3.49
Diamond 2 Measurements 5.70-5.73x3.52
 
That inclusion in the center of #2 would drive me nuts. Even if it was eye clean, it wouldn''t be mind clean for me. But I am a rookie. I''d let some of the guru''s chime in because they are the experts.

The leakage at 4 o'clock and 10 o'clock would bother me.


It's minimal, and I sincerely doubt visible IRL with human stereo-vision, but... if I'm buying an ACA I'm paying for perfection, and I'd want perfection.

Unless it's a photography artifact... do you have the ASET for this stone?


ETA: I can't find it through WF's loose stone search.
 
Given the inclusion in #2 that miracles noted, I'd go with #1 and #3 (assuming WF confirms eyeclean to your standards) - IS and ASET for stone#3 are fantastic.


You'd need eagle eyes to see that spread difference with the stones loose right next to each other, let alone opposite sides of the head

Different depths is not a concern.
 
I really think you''d be happy with any of them, but #1 and #3 would be my winners due to the inclusion. I think you''ll be really happy with these!!
 
I agree. 1 and 3!! I wear a .57 and a .59....it''s not noticeable with a big head between the ears.

For the record, ear shots are a requirement on PS.

Let us know when you have decided and get the bling.

Thanks to everybody for valuable opinion! I am so happy getting your hel. It will be very important purchase for me (first one ;) ), want to make it right and enjoy the process and result.
I have this crazy idea of matchy-matchy, was going throught PS pages and there are lots of ladies here who own perfect matching studs.

What about those two babies? :)

can''t wait to shoot one ;)!
 
I would appretiate your comments on the last two stones I published. Thank you very much!
 
If the price on the BGD stones is comparable to the WF ones that you posted, I would definitely go with the BGD stones. I have recently made 2 earring purchases with BGD and am VERY impressed with the final product. You won''t be disappointed with either vendor, but I think the BGD stones are a better match and the images appear better for those stones.
 
both set looks good to me.
 
All these diamonds look great, I would say though as they are h&a that the hearts images for the stones would be useful if you could post those please.
 
ordered Brian''s stones. Will post the images when I recieve the earrings! Thanks everyone for your comments!
 
As promised, images are posted here
