Hi guys, I don't think I lvie anywhere with Solasfera to see so wondering if anyone has seen it in person.
I talked to the guys at GOG and they said it does look a bit better than the H&A. The price premium seems to run about 8-10% on GOG site which seems to be reasonable I gues. However, does it really look better in terms of better light return and fire? Or is H&A so good already that the difference won't be noticeable.
Next, there was an SI1 stone and they siad that it's eye clean especially since Solasfera's cut has so many facets that it's much harder to see inclusions. Is that also true?
Basically, I am looking for a 1 carat stone for about 9-10k.
I can probably get maybe 1 level higher for color and clarity with an H&A I think? (Someone tell me if I am wrong)
So does that degradation make the brighter looking diamond not worth it?
I really wish I could see it but I am in China right now and no luck over here.
