I appreciate all the help and guidance you have offered - as a reminder we are looking to upgrade my wife's 10 year old Ering to something a bit nicer than we could afford when we got married -
We were looking for a 1.5 - 1.7, RB, ideal cut, in a G or H, Eye Clean SI1, with medium blue - I have one coming in for review that fits that at 1.58 - has the med blue - but the cert is a GIA 2000 - so before cut was graded by them - so I do not have the angle information - EX/EX on the polish and symmetry - but not sure if it has been on the shelf all this time - or was a trade - in any case, I am having it brought in for evaluation - should get the pictures, sarin and scope tomorrow - will share those when I get them -
BUT - in the mean time - this diamond was presented to me - and while it does not have the medium blue - and is a little smaller weight at 1.51 - it certainly has what appears to be some nice characteristics - what do you guys think about it....
RB
1.51 cw
H
Si1 - completely eye clean
Ex/Ex/Ex on cut, polish and symmetry
Fluro - Faint
Table - 56
Depth - 61.6
Crown Angle - 35
Pav Angle - 40.6
Crown % - 15.5
Pavillion % - 43
Girdle - Thin to Med faceted
HCA = .8
Think there is any chance this may offer the light performance/visuals of a non-branded H&A type cut?
