Here are the dimensions on this GIA stone. I am waiting on Idealscope images to come next week. HCA 1.1 XXXX. I'm not sure what makes the spread excellent or exactly what this means ; )
I am wondering what type of look this diamond will have. I hear some describe as more fire or more flashes. I'm also wondering what the experts think in general of a diamond with this crown angle combined with this pavilion angle.

If the images look good should I go ahead with this one? Thanks.

Table 58
Depth 60.2
Crown angle 33.5
Pavilion angle 41
Girdle thin to medium faceted 3.5%

Anyone? Is a 33.5 crown all that bad?
 
It looks like a nice stone from what I can see. I would be more concerned with the clarity than the shallow crown. And if you have been reading here, you would know to ask JA for further evaluation of that stone including Aset images. The numbers of the stone might not be as specific as some here like, but no reason it wont be a nice stone. If eye clean, & ticks off your boxes, including price which I cant see, then you should consider it. :))

All the best. :-)
 
34 is probably better with the 41 pavilion angle, but I cannot tell you how it might look different. But to be honest, that stone's inclusions would keep me from buying it. All the inclusions are not even plotted and I would be afraid they could affect light performance. I can see black specs throughout the stone. I'd rather have a smaller stone with better clarity. Or I color instead of H.

(I was typing when ccuheartnurse posted so I didn't see it before posting.)
 
Thank you for your advice, I really appreciate it. I asked for images and also to confirm that it is eye clean from 8". This is important to me as well.
