I am considering the following stone but worried that it is not such a good cut and therefore won't sparkle as much...this seems like an older cut(before they came up with newer cuts like H&A etc). Is there a big difference in how much the stone sparkles between an ideal cut(H&A, Eight Stars etc) as oppose to a cut like the one below? I just don't want to end up with a stone that is definitely big enough but not sparkle or have a poor color. I know these questions/comments are subjective but would like to hear your opinion. Do you think the price is good? I have not seen the stone but only have the GIA Gem Trade Laboratory report.
