I've been reading a bit about different diamond proportions and this seems to fit the ideal cut for an engagement ring. Most of the proportions come in ranges but I'm not sure if the specific combination of angles in this diamond are good. Any insight or thoughts before I pull the trigger would be greatly appreciated!

The crown angle is a bit steep for a 40.8 pavilion so I’m not sure that it would be considered an ideal cut by a grader like AGS. Of course, the certs are only half the story so pictures, and in a perfect world an ideal scope or ASET images, would be very helpful in assessing this diamond.

It falls into GIA Excellent rating and barely makes the cut for the old AGS Ideal criteria:

As @anangel said, get pictures and videos to verify that there aren't any adverse effects from the steeper 35.5° crown angle paired with the 40.8° pavilion angle.

I ran it through the HCA. Scores 2.7- I feel like you could do better but I don’t know what the cost of this diamond is vs your budget.
