Hi All,
been searching for a perfect cushion stones for a long time. I like the facets on the 2.04 but feathers inclusion on the stone is what concerns me. the 1.92 crt has better color and clarity. I don't mind to go down one color to get a bigger stone. which one would you pick between these two stones if you were me?

1. I like the shape.
2. higher color.
3. the J shows some mushy facets under the table (around the edges) where light leaks and the natural yellow tint shows. This is nearly non-existent in the I.
Of course, you need the IS/ASET image to confirm anything in regard to light leakage.


But the J is bigger in terms of both carat weight and spread.

Although I like the elongated shape of the J, I have to agree with FP... the I is a higher color and the faceting is crisper.
 
THANKS FOR A QUICK RELY! I am in a process of ordering the stone, now i just need to find a setting for it? Do you have any idea which one i should get? I like just a plain solitaire setting but JA doesn't have much to choose from, and some of their designers don't have a setting for a cushion cut :(.
 
This is an ASET for an I stone
