What do you think about this ags aset image?

Hello everyone, what do you think about and what can you tell from this ags aset image? This diamond is mounted so the ags aset image had to be taken with it in the setting. I also was unable to get an idealscope image because it is mounted. Thanks!

Looks great.

You can take an IS image when it is mounted if you have one.

The ASET looks really good though!

From what I can see it appears to be a good image.

You are taking an image of a mounted stone, which means if you have metal underneath the stone from the setting those areas will also show as red no matter what the light return properties of the diamond are. You can see this by viewing the prongs which are all red as well.

What this means is that you can''t accurately interpret any areas where the setting metal is beneath the diamond pavillion, only the parts of the diamond where the pavillion is open. If possible put a piece of white paper beneath the ring in between the pavillion of the diamond and the setting that may help give you a more accurate image. But overall I''d say an idealscope will be more helpful and neither will be as precise as images of an unset stone.
