round brilliant- OEC vs HA?

[saintn25]

I'm looking for a 1ct RB with a halo. I was wondering if anyone had any pics of OEC cut diamonds in this setting. Are there any pics or preferably videos showing the differences between a HA and OEC RB stones. Seems like the OEC might have more fire but less brilliance.

Also with the 1ct size would I even notice much of a difference on the finger since it is admittedly a somewhat small size? The difference seems quite apparent in 10 or 20x pics but I wonder how it will be under normal viewing situations.

If you go for a Good Old Gold AVR or Victor Canera European Round, you'll have the faceting of an OEC with excellent light return. Yes, I think those would be absolutely gorgeous in a halo. Of course, you can also look for antique stones, too. Kathley has a beautiful OEC in a halo..

I think a 1 ct stone is a wonderful size to put in a halo!
