Greetings folks,
Just a few corrections.
HoF Dream is not the same as a Flanders. There are similarities between the 2 but there are also distinct differences. When we look at diamonds there are 2 internal aspects we grade on the cut and analyse inparticular.
1. Light return vs light leakage
2. Internal or 3 dimensional symmetry.
Both Flanders & Dream & for that matter Regent can have equally beautiful light return or overall brilliancy although the Regent and the Dream will exhibit this more consistently. Why?
The Regent and the Dream have better internal symmetry than the Flanders as it is what might be considered more chaotic (that's not necessarily a bad thing though if it's light return is outstanding). Better internal symmetry when cut to the right combination of crown/pavilion/table will always produce what most would consider, the more attractive stone.
The Dreams I've seen (even though I've only seen very limited stones) were H&A's and had fire and brilliancy that was outstanding even moreso than most squares I come in contact with except the Regent. The Regent is the only other H&A square type stone that I know of to date and exhibits the same incredible fire as the HoF dream but at a fraction of the cost. If you look in our "New Stones being scanned section" on the "For Sale" page you can view the results of some stones I've recently purchased for stock (still in the process of scanning in all the results).
As of now there are only 2 distributors of the Regent I know of and one of us has purchased most of the higher quality Regent inventory for stock.
Unfortunately there are no stones over the 1ct mark worth mentioning but there are some real cherries under the 1ct range.
If you have any other questions I'll do my best to answer.
Kind regards,
Rhino
