Thoughts on this stone

[HoneyBella]

Hi All

Im a newb and would firstly like to say what a great resource this site is!

Just last month my fiance and I went through the process of finding a setting and stone. This was all done before we found this place. We went ahead and purchased with our limited knowlegde of the 4C''s and bought what we thought looked best (and I absolutely love).

Only after finding this site did we start thinking about specs and numbers... so we ran some numbers and I think we got lucky with our buy.

But my question is, how much merit do these cut calcs have?

These are the specs from the GIA diamond cert:
Round Brilliant
Measurement: 5.80 - 5.84 x 3.51mm
Carat weight: 0.72
Color Grade: E
Clarity Grade: VS1
Cut Grade: Excellent
Proportions
Depth: 60.3%
Table: 58%
Crown Angle: 35deg
Crown Height: 14.5%
Pavillion Angle: 40.6deg
Pavillion Depth: 43%
Star Length: 45%
Lower Half: 80%
Girdle: Thin to Medium, Faceted
Cutlet: None
Finish
Polish: Very Good
Symmetry: Very Good
Fluorescence: None
Clarity Characteristics: Crystal, Feather

I''ll try to get some nice pics of the ring soon

Newbi here too, but from the looks of the numbers a very good cut.

Probably a bit high on the color scale. Just my 2 cts.

Thanks for the kind comments guys. I aways catch myself gazing at my ring. I love it! LOL.

I ran it through the HCA and AGA and was very pleased with the resullts. I realise that these are just simulations and nothing beats a proper appraisal but how good are these calculators at gauging stones?
