We have purchased the diamond and are waiting on CAD drawings that should be done in a couple of days. I''m experiencing obsession at this point, which I''m sure is pretty normal. If you can calm my nerves, that would be great! If you can''t and you see something terribly wrong here, please let me know that too!
DH and I looked at a number of diamonds before deciding this was the one. We wanted a big diamond and it is important to us that it be a good color and eye clean. This one is.....at least to us. From what I''ve read on this board, the eye clean determination is truly individual. I could see the inclusions under the loupe, but not without.
Nevertheless, here are the specs on the stone as certified by EGL. I know from reading here as well, that EGL isn''t the certification you would choose, but it''s what I have!
4.08 carats
Color I
Clarity SI2
10.38x10.31x6.25mm
Depth 60.4%
Width 61%
Crown 13%
Pavillion 44%
Polish - Very good
Symmetry - Very good
Culet - None
Fluorescence - None
Grain - NIL
Girdle - Thin to Sl Thick, Faceted, Laser Inscribed
8 Hearts and 8 Arrows
I only had my iPhone with me the day I saw this diamond, but I did take a picture. Not sure if it is going to show up here or not.
I''m definitely a newbie at this, but if I did the input correctly, I get a 4.8 on the HCA. I take it that''s not a good result. So while the report came back not so good, the diamond is beautiful and made my heart sing. I can only hope that the my ring brings me great joy.
