I'm going to try this question again since I think I was confused myself the last time I asked so it might have been unclear.
I'm shopping around for a princess diamond and I've been told by several jeweller's now that a "very good" cut is the best I'm going to see in this shape because they are not rated for cut in the same way that a round diamond is. I have, however, seen princess diamonds rated as "ideal" on various internet sites so I'm a bit confused.
I've been to a few independent jeweller's that have shown me only GIA certified stones at my request (i'm in toronto so a lot of jeweller's up here i've seen seem to favour gemscan stones and they don't seem to have a stellar reputation on these forums) and the certificates don't even comment on a cut grade so I don't even know where the "Very good" rating they keep telling me about is coming from!
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
