It's impossible to purchase a fancy cut diamond based on numbers alone. You really need to work with a vendor that can photograph the diamond for you, take ASET images and assess it IRL for you. I would recommend reaching out to Good Old Gold or Diamonds by Lauren.

I usually like to see a table that is in 64% or smaller and a depth in the high 60s. You might try James Allen since they have great zoomed videos on their stones, but I didn't see much in the way of stones similar to yours. I am in the minority of pricescopers who thinks judging with your eyes is much more telling than an ASET.

This is the one I ended up going with! I am very excited!

Did they send you a picture of the stone??? It is a very bad idea to buy a diamond without seeing it or seeing the magnified images. There are a lot more poorly cut ones than good ones!

I do agree that people very experienced with diamonds can do that, but not most people coming here to look for their first diamond. I think magnified images and ASETs are important for those buying online.

The OP didn't even wait for feedback or other options. I guess we're losing our touch around here. :bigsmile:
