quick! what do you think of this GOG asscher

[pons]

I came across this Asscher at GOG, unfortunately i haven''t had a chance to go and see it
basically it''s the same price as a similar size G SI 1 asscher, and hell, this sounds like a better diamond for the same price.
I need to make a decision soon - i''m going to call them now

thanks,

nice drop style asscher.
slight tilt in the top picture is blacking out one of the center facets but the LS shows it lit.

If you like the drop style asscher thats a good one :}

DC simulated aset image.
A little more red would be nice but thats the nature of that style asscher.

(Storm, I swear you need to teach a seminar! I don''t even know what a "drop-style" asscher is!!)

There are a couple other threads also in the faq on the subject.

To clarify, "bright drop" is not an official term. I''ve only heard it used by Strmdr as his pet term referring to the kind of asscher look that has a rather dark center. Thus, because of the dark center the pinwheels create a "bright" light drop into the center of the stone. It''s rather poetic, if I''m getting his definition right. Strmdr, is that how you define "bright drop" or do I have it all wrong?

Hest88, your description is pretty spot on,
In the thread i linked there are both computer generated and actual images and one in a ring thats drop style.
I define it with a picture rather than words and your correct it is my term.
