Hi All,

I''ve been shopping for a princess cut diamond for the past several months and just came accoss this site today.
I would appreciate any comments/advice on the following stone:

GIA 1.37 carat E, SI1
6.17x6.13x4.37
Depth: 71.3%
Table: 75%
Girdle: Thin to Thick
Cutlet: None
GOOD polish and symmetry
No Flourescence
$7225

I''ve seen it in person and to me it was beautiful - however I have not seen enough stones to know the difference.

The other stone I am considering is this:

GIA 1.52 carat G, SI1
6.32x6.25x4.39
Depth: 70.2%
Table: 71%
Girdle: Thick
Cutlet: None
VERY GOOD polish, GOOD symmetry
No Fluorescence
$8350

I couldn''t tell the difference in size between the 1.37 and the 1.52 when they were sitting side by side, so I figured I would save the money and get the 1.37 carat stone. What do you all think?
Thanks in advance,

Mike
 
I would pass on both of these stones. The numbers just don''t look that great. What are the crown/pavilion angles? Do you have ideal scope images?
 
Unfortunately I don''t know what the crown/pavilion angles are. How can I get these since they don''t come on the cert? Do I need to have the Jewler send them somewhere or should he have the equipment in house to do it. Sorry if I seem naive - I''m still learning about all of this.

Do you have any links of stones you would recommend instead of the two I mentioned?

Thanks
