Hello! First time poster here so let me know if I am posting in the wrong spot. I am in the process of searching for an engagement ring and could use assistance on this stone I am interested in from a jeweler in New York. I have sent this stone to a couple friends but after finding PS I would love to get some thoughts from people who have a lot more experience looking at stones!
I am looking for an elongated oval with the following specs: 1.8-2 carats, D-H color, SI1+, LW ratio of ~1.5 with a max budget of $16k. I know my specs are pretty specific so I was thrilled to find this stone, the only thing holding me back is that I'm not sure if it is common for ovals to have a colorless bow tie to this extent?
Here is the link to the video. The stone is 1.9 ct, H, VVS2, GIA certified. Does the bow tie detract from the beauty of the stone or is this normal? It looks like a colorless bow tie and it sounds like bow ties are common in stones like this with a LW ratio of 1.5+?
