The proportiosn seem promissing - an dthere is a step more from idela proportions to H&A symmetry. That quality step doe snot come free of charge... so there is usually proof for it (H&A pictures), especially that the H&A standard implies very fine details that are not obvious without specific tools and expert identification.

If the stone is not a top of the line H&A (like THIS) than why H&A prices for a piece with just ideal proportions ?

The stone doen that link is supposed to make a case for what type of detail warrants the "H&A" name.

A stone that does display those arrows (the harts never show in setting, obviously) but may or may not make the cut under strict H&A standards, is yet another "animal" - desirable in it's own right for all the good reasons, nevertheless. The price you quote seems to justify requiring proper identification of the H&A quality

whitebrain,


the important numbers you have posted are perfect.


most important are your pav 41° & your crown 34.7°.


all other numbers are fine as well.


the stone should look gorgious and it isn't difficult to check the h&a yourself.


i would not hesitate.


good luck, robbe




ps: don't try too much to decode valeria101's message, she should write this in chinese and perhaps we would understand something...
