Thanks very much for your input! I have appreciated you and the other users input very much. I am tossing up between that diamond and the one below which is higher carat/clarity and has more traditionally "ideal" diamond proportions however is not H&A. It has a HCA score of 1.3. Which one do you like out of the two?
That's tough without seeing them. If I was choosing between the two I think I would go with the VVS2 for it's higher clarity and bigger size as well as smaller table and proportions that lean towards fiery as seen in the chart below. Both should be beautiful however, so there is no bad choice here. At least IMHO. Others may disagree and hopefully others will weigh in.
