Understanding Hearts and Arrows? AGS0?

[find45di2]

I have seen the Hearts of Fire presentation and was definitely impressed how perfect all of the hearts and arrows looked.

When searching for diamonds here on PS I see there is an option for H&A or AGS0. Do jewelers sell diamonds specifically as Hearts and Arrows diamonds? How about AGS0''s, are these the best cut diamond AGS grades and should ideally have Hearts and Arrows?

I am guessing the Hearts and Arrows show up when the cut dimensions are in a perfect range of each other.

Are these diamonds to consider? Should all diamonds have some sort of strong Hearts and Arrows design with minimal perfection and minimal light shining through?

I don''t have time to purchase an Ideal Scope.

This link should explain everything you need to know about H&A! Jewellers do sell diamonds which are specifically H&A, such as Brian Gavin from WF, his ACA diamonds have to pass very strict tests to be awarded the H&A title. Also just because a diamond exhibits a H&A pattern doesn't mean it IS a true H&A diamond. Again the thread will explain how a H&A diamond is crafted. These diamonds and AGS0 are DEFINITELY diamonds to consider!!

And this one AGS0.

Regarding AGS0 diamonds, these are superbly crafted diamonds but see this quote " Just because a diamond is cut to ideal proportions with an AGS0 does not mean that it will exhibit a crisp and true hearts and arrows pattern. In addition to being ideal, the diamond has to have super symmetry - where all the angles and facets have to be perfect."
