Hello,
I currently have an issue choosing between two cushion cut diamonds which I haven't been able to see in the flesh due to the stones residing abroad.
First is:
F VS2 Cushion Brilliant (8 pavilion main) 1.61 carat $11,795
Second is:
E VS1 Modified Cushion Brilliant (4 long mains and 4 arrows inwards) 1.72 carat $16,300
Both are similar in size at around 7 x 7mm, with the second stone around 0.4mm bigger in both length and width, are square with good depth and tables on paper.
Pictures of both in the same order are below - and although I know its always ideal seeing stones in the flesh, the second stone at least will be impossible to ship over beforehand without significant cost. Is there anything that justifies the $4.5k price difference between these - are there any obvious deficiencies etc?
Very interested to hear your thoughts!! (I'm looking for size and sparkle)
Thanks:
