Hi Everyone,

After months of research, it looks like I'm getting close to a ring. Please let me know your thoughts on these 2 diamonds:

Diamond 1:
Carat weight 1.54
Shape Round
Cut Ideal
Color H
Clarity VS2
Length/width ratio 1.01
Depth % 61.9%
Table % 57.0%
Crown Angle 34.5
Pavilion Angle 41
Polish Excellent
Symmetry Excellent
Girdle Medium to Slightly Thick
Culet None
Fluorescence None
Measurements 7.43 x 7.38 x 4.58 mm



Concerns: some light leakage in ASET. Thoughts?

Diamond 2:
Carat weight 1.53
Shape Round
Cut Ideal
Color H
Clarity VS1
Length/width ratio 1.00
Depth % 61.3%
Table % 57.0%
Crown Angle 34.5
Pavilion 41
Polish Excellent
Symmetry Excellent
Girdle Medium
Culet None
Fluorescence Faint
Measurements 7.42 x 7.44 x 4.56 mm



Concerns: faint fluorescence; not sure if there is a tint of yellow or if I'm seeing things. Thoughts?

Cost - similar for both, ~11,500

Thank you so much! Can't explain how thankful I am to this forum and for everyone's help along the way.

No to #1 due to light leakage (white areas under the table)
No to #2, because the proportions are similar to #1. It is lilely to have light leakage

I wouldn't pick either one and I agree with Flyingpig's assessment of them.

Wow. Ok, thank you.
I stuck to the "ideal" dimensions and looks like that didn't work out.
