Hello Diamond experts and enthusiasts alike!
I have been glued to this forum after coming to the internet to try and glean information about a milestone birthday ring purchase my husband made for me.
I’ve been fascinated and dazzled(!) and blinded(!!) by the sheer wealth of information posted here - yet I am left quite confused and feel the more I read the less I really know!
All I know is that my diamond scored very low (5s I believe on the HCA). I am also learning the table size is on the bigger side and pavillion angle is also on the steeper side. So now am concerned about light leakage (am showing my newbie-ness). I’m overwhemed with info on ideal and super ideals, H&A, angles, depths and a whole host of other things.
First and firemost the thing that irked me when looking at the GIA report was the number of inclusions on the diamond. This was what initially prompted me to do some digging online. Hence falling into the rabbit-hole that Pricescope can be for a beginner.
I was particularly drawn in on the thread about whether this board is doing a disservice to newbies. I certainly don’t believe so. But as a newbie - it is with great hesitation and trepidation that I post my details on the stone. I am also not sure of correct etiquette for requesting help - so I am very sorry I am posting in the wrong thread or if it simply is not ‘de rigeur’ to register and post here as a newbie expecting you wonderful experts to give 1:1 advice.
If you got this far - thanks for listening to my ramblings.
And I sincerely appreciate all and any advice/comments on these specs:
