Rhino, I Just Got To Ask

[Andelain]

Do you have pics and specs for this stone?

I hear you Erica. No disagreement. Truth is, there is generally someone for everything. As a diamond grader there are many times I've examined many wonky diamonds to shake my head only to do a practical examination afterwards and say ... as wonkily as this thing is cut it does in fact have charm. I do however stand by my statement that there's lots that are just butt ugly. Not too long ago I posted one we had here that got a light performance grade greater than 10! Here is the ASET. We're not as opposed in our opinion as you think my friend.

Kind regards,
Jonathan

I'd love to see them if you do.

Jonathon isn't allowed to post a link here, because he did try to sell it. Note I said TRY. He sent me an email, and I joked that he'd paid someone to take it. He answered back, "LOL... all but! Truth is it was a diamond that was consigned to us. Made for a GREAT learning diamond but really ... we've showed it quite a few times because we had it priced SO CHEAP but I couldn't even pay anyone to take it. I even explored the recut option to see if it would be worth it for us to buy to recut but it would've come out to like less than a 1/2ct to make it into what I wanted. >"

Here's a link to the pitiful thing, http://www.goodoldgold.com/diamond/8664/ , I'm not sure whether to laugh or feel sorry for it. DON'T CLICK IF YOU'RE SQUEAMISH!!!

Here's a video.. http://youtu.be/VzYE2qM9qHQ

And I thought my brown diamond was bad before Brian Gavin recut it!
