Shallow cut 0.8 HCA vs 2.0 HCA

[Dindy]

Hi! Which of these 2 rocks do you think is better?

Thanks! This is my first post so my apologies if this is the wrong section to post this type of question!

Both look promising - the second one has a higher crown so may give more coloured 'fire' than the first one, but it seems to have a slightly strange, horizontal-lines effect under the table when face-on?

It might just need cleaning or it might be external finishing from the polishing, I will have to leave it to others to confirm!

I like this one better.

Agreed with the above posters. I prefer the first, mainly because there seems to be some shadows under the table of the second.

First one is a really beautiful stone!

Just a suggestion though, maybe consider this one? Looks like a great cut and has quite a bit of fire for $400 less
