I''m getting ready to purchase a 1.0 - 1.3 ct radiant cut diamond for an engagement ring. It will be rectangular shaped, and somewhere around a F/G SI1. I''ve read most of the previous posts on radiants. I do still have one question. I''ve only seen two stones (one from Kwiat, and one I don''t know, both with GIA certs.). One of the diamonds had a 62% depth and 66% table I believe.
Looking at the attached picture (which I modified from a previous post), will the east and west triangular sections on rectangular radiants always look to have less brilliance or facets than the north and south sections?
