Paraq, some well cut diamonds can exhibit a hearts and arrows pattern, yet not be a true example of this type of cutting. Hopefully this info will help!

Crown and pavilion angles are crucial for determining how well a diamond handles light, and for it to be returned to the eye as sparkle etc. CA 34 and PA 41 can be a good combo, it is always good to have an Idealscope image to confirm if available.

This diamond should be GOG''s equivalent of a very fine hearts and arrows cut as ACA is to WF - although the ACA is a branded stone.

Isn''t Hearts and Arrow a branded stone as well? I only ask because I have a an Isee2 branded Hearts and Arrow engagement ring.
Paraq I think the stone looks beautiful.
