Hi Everybody,
I''ve learned so much lurking on this site, so I''ve decided to ask my first question. I would like an opinion on two diamonds. Both are about the same price. Since I''m buying online, I can''t visually inspect them.
My feeling is that the 2.01ct will be a more impressive stone in a solitare ring setting and that the VS2 crystal and very good symmetry won''t negatively affect the look, but I''d like to hear other opinions. Thanks for your help!

The first is a 1.90ct, G, VS1. GIA says it has excellent cut, polish, and symmetry, 7.85 x 7.91 x 4.95 with a med to slightly thick faceted girdle. 62.8 depth, 56 table, 36 crown, and 40.6 pavillion. This gives a HCA of 1.8 in the FIC range. Looking at the GIA report it almost looks like a VVS2.
The second is a 2.01ct, G, VS2. GIA says it has an excellent cut, excellent polish and very good symmetry, 8.01 x 8.13 x 5.03 with a medium facted girdle. 62.1 depth, 54 table, 34.5 crown, and 40.6 pavellion. This gives it a HCA of 0.9 in the TIC range. The GIA report shows a large central crystal.
