It''s beautiful!

Like Ellen said in the other thread, it faces up just a bit smaller, but it''s really lovely. I would snap it up.

 

[JulieN]

can''t go wrong.

 

[ebonykawai]

That is a fantastic rock!

 

[Shay37]

Nice find. Jump on it and run.

[Stone Hunter]

Very hypnotic. The cut really pulls me in. Order it now, before someone else does.

 

[FireGoddess]

Beautiful IS...

 

[kcoursolle]

If the vendor verifies the stone is eye-clean, I would say it''s a winner!

 

[Ellen]

It''s a beaut!

 

[acbutk]

Thanks everybody. I''ve getting the stone on Monday and it''s coming in on Tuesday.

 

[acbutk]

As far as eyeclean goes, they said it was definitely eyeclean. They even said it was mostly clean at 10x. Here''s the 40x shot:

 

[Ellen]

Looks like you really picked a winner!

Have you picked out a setting?

 

[acbutk]

Sorry about the late reply. I''ve picked out a setting at a local jeweler. It''s very simple. It is composed of about .20 ctw of diamonds along the top of a 2.5mm platinum band with a 6-prong setting. I''m going to pick the diamond up from FedEx in a couple of hours. I''m so excited.

 

[Ellen]

It sounds beautiful!!

We''d love to see pics when it''s finished if you can.

 

[acbutk]

The ring will be finished this afternoon. I hope to take some pictures tonight. The diamond is beautiful, and it will look great in the setting. I''m very happy with it. One last question I have is: Looking at all the specs., do you think the amount I paid ($3400) is a fair price. I think it was fair, but I was hoping others would like to weigh in. A 40x image and an idealscope image are near the beginning of the thread. I can look at prices for diamonds that are similar using the PS search, but I was hoping to get some independent evaluations.

excellent price, really...

Avoided the one carat mark.
eyeclean SI2.
G color, top of near colorless.
Expert Selection

It would be easy enough to get a 1 ct G VS2 ACA for twice as much.

 

[DillPickle]

I''d have to echo what Julie is saying... for all intents and purposes, "$3.4k for a 1ct diamond." Great job!!
