Oval - ASET and Black background picture

[OvalHaloJ]

Hi all,

I finally found the diamond that I like, it's an oval cut (a bit more rounded than the usual oval - it's how I like it )

The ASET view looks pretty good to me:



The diamond's details are:

Carat Weight: 2.01
Cut: Very Good
Color: J
Clarity: VS2
GIA Certified
Depth: 63.40
Table: 61.00
Polish: Excellent
Symmetry: Very Good
Girdle: STK-TK
Culet: None
Fluorescence: None
Ratio: 1.30
Measurements: 9.48x7.3x4.63

I've worked with the jeweller and we managed to design and produce a setting I love!

I chose a warmer color and matched the other setting stones because when I had a look at the stones at the local jewellers I just preferred a J compared to a F. I got the pictures of the final result yesterday and I'm just a bit scared it looks a bit too yellow.
It's the first time I see the stone in a black background, do you think that type of background significantly enhance the yellow faint ???









Thoughts on the ASET and possible increase of yellow faint in a black background

Thank you very much!

I think any 2 ct J oval is going to look tinted.

Thanks JulieN,

I guess a slight tint is expected and it's actually what I prefer compared to completely colorless diamond, I was just wondering whether a black background increase the yellow faint because from these last pictures it looks more yellow than expected

There's no sense in worrying about it now. Get it in person to see what you think of it.

Thanks Gypsy !

I'm honestly not that worried, and I'm looking forward to having a look at it in my hands, I was just curious to understand whether a black background can increase the "yellow" factor ?

Thanks again for the very quick answers !

What I'm actually trying to understand is the difference between a picture taken with a dark background and a picture taken with a bright background.

In the picture with the black background, even the platinum setting looks a bit yellow
am I just wrong ?

Thanks!

I was just reading in the colored stones forum that black backgrounds do being out the color in stones.now I don't know how it effects this one because there is that border of white around the actual stone, but- in general yes I believe black brings out the color in stones.

Like gypsy said, no use over analyzing it now. If you liked them in person I'm sure you'll like it

Can someone tell me why this asset looks good? I still have a hard time reading assets with fancy shapes. Thank you.
