Should I buy this? H SI1 1.5 carat triple-X $12k at JA

[jennykuang]

Dear All:


Color H, SI1, 1.5 carat, triple-X , HCA score 1.0, eye clean, $12,000 at JA. The twinning wisps is all the way to the middle of the stone and this is something that I worried about. but I like the excellent HCA score and the size of it. Should I buy it?

I dont really like the I they like, just the look of the arrows.

I know this is +2 on the HCA, but it within the "cheat sheet", and i prefer the look of the fat arrows. So if they are getting asets for you, i might suggest this one too. Seems like a high J. Id have to ask if its eye clean though. Just seems like it has some potential

i like this one as well, but i think it has too much color, unless she specifically liked that

also, these value select stones are always good to consider as i believe he like goes over and makes sure they are good performers, even if they dont fit normal parameters

Re Niel: thank you so much for the great suggestions. Does high J mean a whiter j? What do you think about the h color one? Is there anything wrong with it? We actually want to stay in h for color.

I like the H SI1 stone you linked. Twinning wisps are usually not visible to the naked eye. It looks pretty clean from the 360 degree view. What did the gemologist say about the stone? Recommended?

Thank you MissGotRocks. I picked a couple more stones with this one. The specialist said that they are all good and looks no difference with naked eyes. I was a little confused bc they were all recommended. haha..
